Same with me. Be VERY careful sharing anything from a private account in any Posted by Sia on January 28, 2026, 8:07 am, in reply to "Re: Yes, it does. Did you INTEND to share your own, private Instagram???" ADMIN social media you use. Best to fix any link as Jacque outlined or try signing out and then finding the link to post without your info attached. I always do a preview and check my links if using a "real account". I was watching to see if you were still here after asking and planned to delete or fix your link if you didnt respond within 15 minutes of my pointing it out.

Thank you and Jacque for that info. Posted by Skye on January 28, 2026, 8:47 am, in reply to "Same with me. Be VERY careful sharing anything from a private account in any " Valued Poster I just don't know these things. Not tech savvy....

I get it. when I see it, I let a poster know. it was so late that I figured Posted by Sia on January 28, 2026, 7:00 pm, in reply to "Thank you and Jacque for that info." ADMIN I could give you 15 minutes to respond rather than just delete it from your post. Always do a preview and snip the link have if you are coming from anywhere you have any kind of personal account presence. Sometimes the safest thing is to do a screen shot, then upload using the ibb (upload image) feature at the bottom of the posting box.... Or go directly there at https://ibb.co/album/ where you can create an account using a disguised name and no personal info or just use it to upload without an account. Most folks couldnt care less about links that give info and don't pursue it. If your link hadn't asked me if I wanted to follow you and included something somewhat familiar in it, I wouldn't have likely noticed that it was a personal account. Normally I wouldn't have even clicked on the link. I only did because I have strong security that would have blocked me from opening it if not safe.

BTW, even though it says the link doesn't exist, look for the upload arrow Posted by Sia on January 28, 2026, 8:52 pm, in reply to "I get it. when I see it, I let a poster know. it was so late that I figured" arrow to upload anything you want without an account. Or create an account under "Skye" that has no personal info in it.

No… did I do that? Posted by Skye on January 28, 2026, 12:43 am, in reply to "Yes, it does. Did you INTEND to share your own, private Instagram???" Valued Poster

Yes. That's why I asked you. i was pretty sure you did not. Posted by Sia on January 28, 2026, 7:57 am, in reply to "No… did I do that?" ADMIN

Re: No… did I do that? Posted by jacque on January 28, 2026, 1:17 am, in reply to "No… did I do that?" Valued Poster Info tip. When sharing a link there is usually some sort of identifier attached. It can be who shared it from where and what browser etc. When Pasting a link look for the ? in the URL and delete the ? and everything after it. Example copy share www.SocialMedia.com/share/aBc4ef3/?sid=unique_ID&Variable_X=a_value Should be pasted as www.SocialMedia.com/share/aBc4ef3/ This can avoid revealing personal account links it was shared from. A Jack of all trades is master of none, but oftentimes better than a master of one. ... And many thanks for the masters in skill for setting our standard of work to instill.
