Martin Ford Posted February 9, 2020 Share Posted February 9, 2020 I can post this pic which is from my flickr account but after a certain time the option to copy url is not there. Seems to be all older pics are ok but then anything after July/August last year the option has gone. The odd thing being it has happened to pics I have already posted on this forum. Very strange and annoying, oh well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Troy Smith Posted February 9, 2020 Share Posted February 9, 2020 3 hours ago, franky boy said: When i I copy and paste the code over from Flickr it’s only coming up as plain text on BM. I have my Flickr account set to public and can’t think what else it might be? I’m sure it’s something at that end. it does at first, but when you hit submit post, the image then appears. Try a test post here. also, do not try to put the Flcikr link into the 'insert image from url' box in the lower right, just paste the ink into the main post area. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Olmec Head Posted May 28, 2020 Share Posted May 28, 2020 (edited) I am able to upload my images from my new Flickr account, but the image size is small and I don't seem able to resize this in Flickr. The original image on my laptop are !mb plus, so it seems that Flickr is shrinking them down, like this: Which is a bit small for the average getting on a bit Britmodeller. Any ideas please? Hooray got it to work! Edited May 28, 2020 by Olmec Head Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flite-Metal Posted May 28, 2020 Share Posted May 28, 2020 (edited) Testing larger image posted through 😄. Would be a wee stretch to think guys "over there" would consider crossing the pond to attend our 40th WarBird Rally. .....Bomber Field is just West of Houston, Texas. Thought to test .....image posting with our event brochure.

KeithR Posted June 21, 2020 Share Posted June 21, 2020 Hi Dogsbody, This is my first time posting on Britmodeller so I'm still finding my feet. The picture appears for me, but I've found a different way of doing it now which you might be able to see. It's my post about the Spitfire Ia in Ready for Inspection. There are two similar posts next to each other only one is mine. Sorry I can't figure out how to insert a link to it yet. I'd be curious to see if you can see it. Keith.
