Guys having problems trying to copy pics to here from my Flickr. How do i just copy the pic without the flickr links. I have tried just copying the image section but that then screws the posting up putting words on the same line as the pic.  :rolleye:

I guess you can just delete the lines you don't want in BOLD. and leave the bit surrounded by the [img] tags.
I must admit sharing on Flickr is less straightforward than Photobucket.  :sad1:

I have tried that and for some reason a couple of the pics will be ok but the thread gets screwed up putting pics on the right hand side of the page and the writing even further right.  :stupid:

Have tried both the codes and it doesn't want to help me.  :fighting:

Goto the photo you want.

Click the + button above left of the photo to open it in lightbox

Click top right... view all sizes

Drag the image into the address bar and copy that URL.


Thats the long way around!

Thats what i was doing but i got paranoid and thought everyone could see my email address so changed settings then Stealth said my pics were not working, even though they looked fine for me when previewing my posts.  :chicken:

Just tried the obvious way again does that pic show up correctly for you.  :happy2:

I have been trying this, but on multiple picture posts it just mucks all the post alignment up.  :rolleye:

I dont mind the link on the pics as long as it works, i have all my other pics on private viewing ( hopefully.  :laugh: )
