Best way to post photos?

[prog99]

As if by magic. You should be able to see what I did to make it display. Nice kilt.

I tried linking my pics from flickr to the TR but it didn´t work. . The link to the Photostream worked, but it´s not, what I wanted.
And how can I get my TR linked to the Long Distance Route Site?

You need to select a specific photo in Flickr and go to the 'share' icon on the bottom right:

Then go to the 'BB Code' option and copy out the link (it should already be highlighted). Unfortunately, it's then a case of repeating with each photo, which could take quite some time!

I see malky has left the setting on flickr as large (below the code) I sometimes find this site won't take a large photo, and you will have to reduce it, though reading back, I see that Paul thinks that large is acceptable.

Hello folks,

Sorry to hijack this thread, but can anyone tell me how to make the photos that you upload to your report pop-out like the one malky_c posted above?

Is this something to do with using flickr? (I just upload directly to WH at the mo, so maybe that explains it).

Many cheers,

Adam.

Yes, you got it! Links to photos hosted on other sites (e.g. Flickr) will "pop-out", photos uploaded to WH will not.

Just one question on this: the only way I've found to remove the blue underlining, and random code in the BB Code, is to delete by hand everything outside the [img]-----[img] text. Does anyone know any more efficient way of getting a clean picture?

[malky_c]

Not that I can see, although if it's the same in every photo, you can paste all your photo links into Word in one go and use Find/Replace. I do this to remove the 'by malky_c' bit, but it obvioulsly doesn't work for the photo titles (which I rename in Flickr instead so they provide captions). If someone does know a quick way, I'm all ears!

[Mal Grey]

As far as I'm aware, manual deletion or renaming before grabbing link as malky says, are the only options. I have the same issue on other forums (fora?) too.
