Isn't it amazing that instead of the app giving us a message that you will need certain number of posts before you can upload a photo, it says "Bad Request"

I assume you are talking about official xda app / xda labs. So yeah this is a known API limitation. https://github.com/Wood-Man/XDA-Labs-Issues-and-Suggestions/issues/39

Backend API and probably the app itself would need a fix indeed but along with a lot of other bugs. Just a matter of priority and also ressource/time on xda's end.

You either have the possibility attach insert a image, which is uploaded to somewhere into the cloud (like my hidden example below to framapic.org) into your thread or to attach your locally stored images to your thread (see attached screenshots; in this case the images are uploaded to XDA).
What exactly did you attempt?

I just want to attach a screenshot from my phone screen that I downloaded to my local drive.
Anyway, while reply to your post, I see the option "Attachments" and I can add my image.
But from one of others, I didn't have this option.....it's weird

You can only add images (or anything else) to your own posts, or do you pretend to be also thotran7989? You have no permissions to add/attach anything to a post of another member.

Additionally, I suggest to only use "reply" or "multi-quote" instead of "quick reply" if you want to attach something.

Thank you for your comment. You're correct, when I try "Reply" the full option shows up. I did use "Quick Reply"...and that's the problem occur.

Well i still see url when i try to upload pictures

innit · Mar 20, 2020

How can I upload pictures or screenshots in full resolution? Every time I attach a pic it's being uploaded in such a bad quality that you can hardly see what's in it.

Not being able to upload files is one of some intented limitations of XDA website for its very new members (junior members with less than 10 posts).

The "bad request" error shown within XDA mobile app is a generic backend error. In that case it's all about permissions, the same as for the website.

After 10 (useful) posts, you should be able to upload files using both a web browser and XDA app.

By upload, do you also include image links? I have an image on my google drive. I added the link to that image in one of my posts. While the post did not show any errors, the image is not showing up when I view that post now.

Did the link you inserted between these tags

had the .img (or similar for a picture) at the end. If I want to insert pictures I usually don't upload to google but to https://imgbb.com/ or https://imgur.com/ (for permanent availability but require registration) or to https://framapic.org/.

Thanks a lot. The drive link did not have the correct image extension. I've added an imgur.com link with a .jpg extension and it works now.
