It is ages since i did any work on my tree and have a photo of someone who I would like to identify. I have a few vague details but there are so many boards now that I am not sure of the best way to go about this.
Any advice would be greatly appreciated
Thank you

Susan, upload the photo to your keepsafe.
Hover your cursor over the image and select Edit.
To the right of the screen you'll see a section that says Privacy.
Select Shared with everyone.
Save.

You can then copy the url to paste it on to the thread, ideally on the appropriate board. don't worry to much if it ends up on the 'wrong' one. Don't bother with Suggestions as virtually no one looks at it.

This is the url of a photo previously shared with everyone. Make sure yours is the same format. You do have to remember to click on the photo from your keepsafe so that the url leads only to that.
