These are the only 2 ways I can find to share from flickr but this fine shade comparison photo appears as a link not a photo!!!

Hi Mick,

Since direct HTML tags do not work with phpbb, in your browser tab add sizes after the url (so https://www.flickr.com/photos/57141830@N08/14709580995/ becomes https://www.flickr.com/photos/57141830@ ... 0995/sizes) and then click on 'Medium 640' to get the 640x480 resize of the image, right click 'Copy Image URL' and then when back to the thread-reply tab, use the 'Img' bbtag in the reply window.

Example:

Code: Select all

Hope that helps!

Glad I was able to help out!! I recommend using Medium 640 as it fits best the most common monitor resolutions. When I post pics I usually make it a link to the image link in original size, like this:

Code: Select all

Of course it takes longer (therefore optional in my opinion), but if you click on the picture you will be able see the picture in original/full resolution ;)

Self-Inflickted 'Photobucket' problem.

Post by GHOSTHUNTER »

Hi Guys. I recently had a go at tidying up the pictures in my 'Photobucket' library. I created some additional 'Named' folders like...Y-10 Silver Ghost, Y-7 Silver Ghost etc, I then proceeded to move pictures from the 'Bucket', the default up-loading area in your library, to their correct Albums, thought this would be a good idea before it becomes too un-manaeable because of the amount of pictures in there. Despite a warning everytime I moved a picture, telling me any sharing links from the image to wherever would be broken, I never gave it another thought, only later when looking at some of my posts on the forum I realised what those broken sharing links meant...the pictures were no longer displayed with my posts...

BLAST, BLAST and BLAST again , I have had to edit all the posts with pictures linked to my 'bucket' account and re-post each picture back onto the forum, now, I don't remember exactly how many pictures have been removed from my posts, I am going through them looking for the 'PICTURE REMOVED' message, but if you spot any, please be patient while I attend to it, thanks.

An annoyed Ghosty!
