Adding photographs to this site

PostThu Oct 09, 2014 10:40 am

I tried unsuccessfully to upload some Cardiff photos to this forum last night. I used to be able to do it easily busing Flickr. Out of interest, does anyone on here (who similarly uploads) know if Flickr in particular allows you to do this any longer?

They have "improved" their website in recent times (ie reconfigured it so that you effectively have to opt out of sharing your pics with the world at large via links to the usual Twitbook social media sites). It is nevertheless much more confusing to ascertain how it is possible to link your pics to a portal that you actually want (ie this forum) .

I did cut and paste the http address and insert it between, firstly the Img link above (didn't work) and secondly the Url link above but that also didn't work.

Trying to find out such a basic piece of info on their website is mission impossible. Any help would be appreciated.Life used to be so much more simple back in the early days of the web.

Hi Wizard

If when posting you click on Img and then paste the url copied from flickr 'inbetween brackets' then that should work - I've done so here..

Thanks Paul - I tried last night but it didn't work - my url didn't have the format of https://farm4.staticflickr.com/ etc .

I'll try again later!
