I have tried all bloody afternoon and can’t get a photo up on my bloody classified adverts. The link, no problem, putting the photo on my thread – a bloody nightmare. I have followed the instructions on here to the letter, and got nowhere.

Any chance of a proper idiots guide to putting a pic up rather than just the link.

Cheers 🙄

where is the photo hosted? is it on an Iranian power station blog site?

Bloody FlickR – now I will never claim to be the most technically gifted person (unless on the Mojo, of course!!) but I just can’t see where I’m going wrong. I do exactly as it says and then it still f*cks up! Think I need to chill out a bit 👿

Use above website, no membership or password log in, it’s simple and easy website to use, hope this helps.

After Flickr changed it’s posting interface it completely screwed up my ability to post pics. I tried following the instructions from here, but to no avail. Started using Photobucket, and it’s simplicity itself, works like a charm.

Right – Tinypic and/or Photobucket it is. Told the Mrs I am not coming to bed until I sort it out so she’ll no doubt be grateful for your advice – so to speak!

Or just go to:

1. Actions above the picture on Flickr.
2. View All Sizes.
3. Right click on the image and choose ‘Copy image address’.
4. Paste inside (minus the spaces) [ img ] [ /img ].

That way you don’t get the info underneath the picture.

Not sure if other people are having the same issues as me but when I click on the “Share this” button on Flickr I get a little box pop up with the Flickr logo moving backwards and forwards and nothing else happens.

I’m pretty sure this is because my (work) computer needs updating to the latest version of Java.

All OK at home though where I am obviously trusted to update my computer.
