bruce_z._li2 Posted July 31, 2023 Share Posted July 31, 2023 Hi photo.net used to be able to show photos with BBC code from Flickr, but after recent upgrade (less than a year ago) this function is no longer working. Very occasionally when I reply to a thread, some flickr link will automatically load the image. But most of the time, it does not work. It is quite tedious to copy paste the image link using the upload with url function, and wasting my quota if I upload the image file directly. Do you have any success in posting an image from flickr with just the link?

Niels - NHSN Posted July 31, 2023 Share Posted July 31, 2023 (edited) Hey Bruce The flickr share link always work for me: Just paste it directly into the thread space, and the image will show up automatically. It hasn't failed me so far. The above link inserted below you don't need to insert image or link or anything, just paste the share link.

AlanKlein Posted July 31, 2023 Share Posted July 31, 2023 I just use the URL link for the page provided by the internet service at the top of the page. Flickr gallery: https://www.flickr.com/photos/alanklein2000/albums Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AlanKlein Posted July 31, 2023 Share Posted July 31, 2023 I was just thinking that could it be that if you photo is larger than what's accepted by Photo.net, then those won't be accepted?

bruce_z._li2 Posted August 3, 2023 Author Share Posted August 3, 2023 Thank you both. Maybe I was using the BBC code instead of just the link. Will try it later. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bruce_z._li2 Posted August 4, 2023 Author Share Posted August 4, 2023 Bit strange, it did not work for me. Like the last post with the flickr link. @Niels - NHSN may I ask which browser (Safari, Edge, Chrome) are you using? And on which computer OS (Windows, Mac)?

bruce_z._li2 Posted August 4, 2023 Author Share Posted August 4, 2023 Never mind, it works now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Niels - NHSN Posted August 4, 2023 Share Posted August 4, 2023 The Flickr share link from your previous post. I use Safari/Mac. You sometimes have to wait a few seconds for the photo.net software to parse the link and show the picture. Niels Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
