Inserting photos

[dogbass]

I've read up on how to add large photos (not just thumbnails) directly into your thread, but not sure I'm getting it right. I suppose if a photo shows up in this thread (from Flick) than I've figured it out. If its not working or just the link is showing, then guess I haven't got it yet.

Somehow, you need to get a URL that ends with the filename (which ends in .jpg or .gif). So it'd be [Invalid or Expired Link Removed] for example.

Using your URL, I went to your flicker page. Now, right-click on the image and view it's location - you'll see a url that ends with .jpg :

Thanks Paul;

Although I'm not seeing your image either. Perhaps its Flickr or perhaps its an issue with MY Flickr account. I'll keep trying...

Just figured out that it was a proxy server security issue blocking my access to Flickr. Everything looks fine from home computer and I guess I know how to insert photos now ! Thanks for your help Paul

Sorry, I seem to have the same problem... I just try to post a picture...
... and all I see in the preview is the html of the link... :-/
