I've become to stupid to post images

Postby colorjunkie » Thu Mar 17, 2011 2:28 pm

Ever since Flickr changed everything around last year I'm having a bear of a time posting images. Am I the only one? What am I doing wrong? It seems like I've tried everything; Img, Url, brackets around it, ugh. Any ideas?
Thanks!

CJ,

I copied this pic from your gallery by copying the file info ("view image info" and then the "location" is the file name) and placing it between the image tags [img].....[/img].

Hope this helps. (Let me know after you have tried it and I'll delete this post).

Thanks, yeah I'm trying that and everything else and nothing seems to be working what gets posted is a text URL between the brackets, hmmmm.

CJ,

Here's a setup that hopefully will allow you to post your images.

Go to your image on Flickr and right click and select "medium 640".
When the image displays, right click again and select "View image info".
Copy the file info shown after "location:" (it should end in ".jpg")
Click on the "Img" tag above your message input on this forum and the system will enter image tags and the cursor will be located between the ] [ brackets. Paste your file info from Flickr and it should work (make sure there are no blank spaces between the brackets).

Here's a sample (just remove the two asterisks after http:
[img]http:**//farm6.static.flickr.com/5136/5542084318_0b2a4ba786_z.jpg[/img]

If this doesn't work for you, PM me the file info that you pasted between the Img tags and I'll see what needs to be changed.

Man since Flickr changed last year it's been hit or miss, Gracias!
Oh, this is 'alpenglow' from Sentinel Dome in Yosemite National Park.
From left to right is Cathedral Peak, The Mathes Crest, and the massive face of Clouds Rest looming above Tenaya Canyon, Olmstead Point is over there if you know where to look too. 5 frames.
