Title: OK, I give up! Posting pics... Post by: ducsport on January 02, 2010, 06:13:32 PM Folks,
I know this has been asked about 1,000,000 times, but how the #$%^ do you get pictures to post please? I have a flickr site with the images hosted. I am using the 'insert image' icon in the post reply screen, and pasting the flickr url into the [img] boxes, but still the images do not come out. What am I missing here please? ducsport the inept...... Title: Re: OK, I give up! Posting pics... Post by: mattyvas on January 02, 2010, 07:00:15 PM Okay Ty I feel your frustration.
You are almost there. You need to copy the image location from where you pics are hosted at flickr. (http://>copy it in here<) and you should be good to go. To get the image location just right click (PC) or ctrl click (Mac) Title: Re: OK, I give up! Posting pics...

Mmick Title: Re: OK, I give up! Posting pics... Post by: mattyvas on January 02, 2010, 07:06:13 PM Well either really.

Thanks Matty - the guru as always. Cheers, ducsport the enlightened..... Title: Re: OK, I give up! Posting pics... Post by: mattyvas on January 02, 2010, 07:37:14 PM Do you have a bigger copy?
What is the maximum image dimension you uploaded to your Flickr. Title: Re: OK, I give up! Posting pics... Post by: ducsport on January 02, 2010, 07:58:34 PM Do you have a bigger copy? What is the maximum image dimension you uploaded to your Flickr. yes, used bigger ones for the post in for sale, which you have already replied to... ;D Title: Re: OK, I give up! Posting pics... Post by: Betty on January 02, 2010, 08:21:33 PM Well then perhaps you guys can help me with issues I have been having with Flickr. It was not always the case but now I can only paste links to the photostream ... not the full size version of the photo.
So it still works just that I can only link to the smaller photo ... is this because I am a cheap-arse on a free account? Something seems to have changed - any input/advice? I have only started to have this problem recently. Title: Re: OK, I give up! Posting pics... Post by: mattyvas on January 02, 2010, 09:33:12 PM yep it is a recent thing.
you have to go into all sizes and select the size you wish to post. Title: Re: OK, I give up! Posting pics... Post by: Betty on January 03, 2010, 02:22:34 AM Thanks Matty I think I understand. I'll try it sometime.
