Can I Post Photos Here from flickr?

Yep.

Right click the image you want, click 'copy image location' then just paste it into the box that comes up when you click insert image.

"Copy image location" is not an option that comes up when I right-click the photo in flickr.

Am I doing something wrong?



Whats your browser and operating system?

I highly recommend you download Firefox if your using IE. Better than any version of Internet Explorer in every single way.

Alternatively you can click 'all sizes' above the image, then scroll down and copy the text under 'Grab the photo's URL'.

I think it works. We'll see. This is a test. I had to right-click the foto, go to properties, and copy the url from there.

You also technically have to link back to the original according to the flickr ToS.

I'm surprised Flickr doesn't feature a readily copy&pastable bbcode like some image hoster services have. They are normally formed as Code:

Code:
[left][url =path to original image on Flickr][img=the image url][/url][/left]

go to the pic you want click on all sizes,(option above the pic), select the size you want, i suggest medium otherwise some people with slow internet have problems, then copy and paste the url down the page. note: if you leave the http// part out when you copy it makes it easier to paste in here....

Thanks, Matt.

Here's an attempt at a medium-sized picture.

I wasn't aware of that requirement. I guess I've got to spend more time in and around flickr.

Thanks.

Same here, Head-Fi on one tab, Flickr or Photobucket on another tab. Faster I think.
