Title: Completely failing at Flickr
Post by: SquarePeg on September 13, 2017, 12:34:21 PM

I used to use Photobucket for all my hosting needs, I'm now trying out Flickr but I can't get my pics to work!  What am I missing?  What should the code look like?

Okay, got your files uploaded?  Once you are looking at the image, the right hand corner should have an icon of an arrow flipping down.  Click that. 

For the Arena you want the last one, the BBCode.  Take that and copy/paste into Notepad.

Remove the linking tags back to Flickr and your album, you just want [ img ] www.flickr.com/where-ever . jpg [ / img ]

Flickr does NOT host .gifs, and make sure you take out all those spaces I left to make the code show up as text and not actual code :)

It drove me up the wall learning how to use Flickr but seriously if I can do it, you can!
