Nick,
I've never failed before but something in flickr has changed and try as I may, I can not find the photo URL in flickr despite following the download instructions.
Can you help, please.

Test picture



Hi Bruce
You are right, things have changed!

Click on "Your photostream"
Right click on the picture you want to display. Select "Copy image location" (NOT "copy link location")
On the New Topic (or reply to topic) form on this site, click on the "Insert Image" icon (it is supposed to be a picture of some mountains on a yellow background - 11th icon from the left starting with "B")
Move the cursor so that it is in between the two img tags, then holding down the Ctrl key, press V (paste)

That should do it!

I have a direct image upload mod in the pipeline which I hope to be able to migrate here soon.

Did a test with picture below, and I can't see any difference in using flickr.
Maybe I always did it in a strange unusual way ?!

I still have problem with Flickr. When I follow Nick's instruction I do not get the appropriate menu when I right click on the picture. I get a microsoft menu not a flickr menu.

Did you click on 'Your Photostream' first? If you did, you should see a strange face like image with the words "Your Photostream" near the top of the page.

Hi Bruce
I seem to remember reading something from them to do with the "Privacy" laws- but have no memory what it was!

Thanks for your response. I am a bit short of time at the moment but will have another go at posting a picture in the next few days.

At last I have mastered Flickr.

I slected the picture from My Photostream, adjusted the size, right clicked it, selected Properties, copied the link from the Properties dialogue box and pasted it between the 'img's.

Hope that they don't change their system again any time soon.

Thanks for your help.
