uploading images using flickr

[Escudo]

Help shipmates!

I have to re upload all my images and Chris suggested I use Flickr. I have sent the pictures to flick, but I am having trouble getting them to appear in my post as a pic and not just a link.

Perhaps one of you clever chaps knows the answer?

:roll: Esc.

Esc
Go to the picture you want to display in your post, select view all sizes, pick the size of image you want in the post and then cut and paste the link code in the "Grab the photo's URL" (box 2) into your post between IMG tags, like so.

Cheers Mike

Perhaps some nice person would do a step by step for Flickr? No, not me; someone else's turn to be community spirited for a change, please...

Cheers, Alf

mr has said it all really - quite simple, this is how I do all mine. Just remember when you click on the picture you want that you select the link 'All Sizes' above the photo.

Mr mentions going into "view all sizes" and that is important because if you click on any pic to view it then right click on that pic the information of location in the properties will look like this one of Mr pic

it's the bit of code after the jpg that nackers it up. So all I do is only drag over to highlight as far as the jpg it will be ok.

Then with it highlighted press Ctrl & C to copy it.

To paste the pic on the forum

1. you can click on the Img tag above the box your writing the post in

2. You will then see

3. now paste the properties location you copied earlier by pressing Ctrl & V.

4. So it looks like [img]http://farm2.static.flickr.com/1111/1367122740_a1111feedc_m.jpg

5. Now click on the [b]img[/b] button above the box you are writing in and it will add

Thats it. :lol:
