Since this whole debacle with Flickr a few days ago, many virtual globe residents have been spreading their wings and accept joined Instagram to share their piece of work. If you have too joined Instagram, experience costless to follow me: Instagram.com/strawberrysinghvr I have been trying to follow dorsum all Second Life accounts, except those that are set to private or have a lot of nudity/adult content. Adult content or nudity can go yous banned from Instagram by the mode.

How I currently upload to Instagram – I don't use desktop

A lot of you have asked me how I upload my pictures to Instagram. I've tried a number of ways through my desktop, but now I've settled on just using the regular mobile style, which I'm happy pretty happy with. In August I purchased a big 10 inch Asus tablet (this is an Amazon affiliate link) that I use only for my virtual life activities and I also use it to play Kim Kardashian Hollywood (don't approximate me, I'k an aficionado!) I upload/backup all of my 2d life and other virtual globe images to my Google Photos after I process them in Photoshop. Doing that enables me to access them on my tablet using the Google Photos app. And then I'one thousand able to upload my images direct into Instagram through the Google Photos app on my tablet.

For Instagram Business organization Accounts

So how tin can yous upload to Instagram directly from your desktop? Before I share links and info about that, I practise want to recommend you remember about switching your Instagram account to a Business organization business relationship. There are many reasons to do this, 2 of which is that you get free stats (Insights) and besides then yous are not at the risk of breaking Instagram guidelines past uploading to Instagram from desktop. In Jan 2018 Instagram announced their new Graph API which allows Concern Instagram accounts to schedule and directly upload their posts using Instagram approved Partners on their desktop. Technically, if y'all do not take an Instagram Business account then yous are not actually supposed to upload directly from desktop using third party apps. Instagram prefers information technology if not-business concern accounts use their mobile app for uploading. That'south why I highly recommend switching to a Business Account, it doesn't cost annihilation to practise that and the benefits are great.

Here are the Instagram Approved Partners that I have used to upload directly from my desktop:

• Hootsuite – Hootsuite is a social media direction platform. You can employ it to schedule and directly post on a variety of social networks, including Instagram. I used their free program, and so it didn't toll me annihilation to schedule and mail directly to Instagram from my desktop.
• Buffer – is an app for the web and mobile, designed to manage accounts in social networks, by providing the means for a user to schedule posts and have them postal service directly. I used their free plan every bit well, and was able to schedule and post directly to Instagram from my desktop.

For Not-Business Instagram Accounts

If you don't want to switch to a business account there are other ways to post direct from your desktop, but well-nigh of them might get your account banned so be careful using them. Here are a few methods I have either tried or heard of when I was uploading to Instagram directly from my computer:

• Gramblr – Gramblr is a desktop application that allows you to upload pictures or videos on Instagram. Yous just have to download this application to your reckoner, they have Windows and MAC versions bachelor. In one case downloaded, install and so login to your Instagram and commencement uploading your images direct from your calculator. I used this a few times when I first started using Instagram but I noticed soon after that Instagram kind of froze my account and then I wasn't able to upload images anymore. Then I did some Googling and found out that this happened to a few people, where their accounts got banned or frozen for using Gramblr. I don't recollect exactly how I got my business relationship dorsum, just that I had to give some data to Instagram and and then they gave it dorsum to me. I uninstalled this and stopped using information technology. I know there are people that notwithstanding employ Gramblr without any issues, but I personally don't recommend it.
• BlueStacks –  The BlueStacks App Player is designed to enable Android applications to run on PCs running Microsoft Windows and Apple tree Macintosh. Yous tin can install BlueStacks and and so prepare information technology up then you can upload to Instagram straight from desktop. I haven't used this technique so can't verify if it's safe to use and works well.
• Utilize your Computer's Browser – This page volition show you how to use your computer'south browser to upload direct to Instagram. It does not require yous to install anything on your computer. It shows you lot how to enable the developer options in your Chrome, Firefox or Safari Browsers and from there you are able to login to the Instagram website and upload directly from the browser. I take not tried this method myself, but it looks easy enough to practise. I am not sure if this breaks the Instagram guidelines since it is a work around and you are non using any third party app.

My Recommendation

For those not wanting to change to a Business organisation account, but still looking for a safe style to upload via desktop, I do have a recommendation but it still requires you lot to have a mobile device to do the bodily mail service on Instagram.

• Later.com – This is a marketing platform for Instagram which lets you visually program and schedule Instagram posts. It is free to apply. You can use it to upload your prototype to their website and schedule your posts with description and hashtag and everything. Then yous install their app on your mobile device and it copies straight from the app into your Instagram app so you can post it from their app directly. This is one fashion you tin can upload your picture and schedule your posts directly from desktop, but you notwithstanding need a mobile device to actually mail it to Instagram. The image will be already loaded on your device through the Later.com app and set for yous to mail service. If yous have a Business account, you tin can set it up to machine-mail service to Instagram as well, but again, since it's non on their approved partners list, I'k not certain if information technology's safe to go that route.

I hope this mail service helps you decide how to mail to Instagram. I've decided to just use my Asus Tablet and post through the app the regular way considering I feel like I take more than control of the filters and hashtags that style. I besides find the mobile app a lot more fun to use. If you use Google Photos to dorsum upward all your images similar I do, then your image will already be on your mobile device through the Google Photos app and yous can upload straight to Instagram from there. Honestly I feel like this method works brilliantly for me. I promise you detect a method that works just as well for you.

Don't forget to follow me on Instagram!
