Posted: Sat Apr 08, 2006 11:23 pm Post subject: Posting pictures
One way to post your pics on here is to have them hosted and then copying and pasting the link to the host after pressing the Img button (between List= and URL) and then pressing the Img button again.
Please note that you will not be able to delete your picture from their servers, as you do not need an account to host a picture with these particular sites.
Here's an example of a incorrect URL for a photo. (It points to the web page where the image is displayed, not the image file itself. You'll notice there's no .jpg on the end.)
» http://www.flickr.com/photos/eric/132375/
(Click on both of these links so you can see the difference...)
To get the URL of the actual image file, first find the photo you want to use. Then you should see an 'All sizes' link above the photo. Select the photo size you want from the available options (square, thumbnail, medium, and large or original if you have permission to access these). If you're looking at one of your own photos, you will see two text fields underneath the photo. The first one contains the URL to the image itself, and the second one contains a snippet of HTML that will produce the photo on your website, with a link back to the photo page here on Flickr. Simply copy and paste the one you're after into your website. Note: The URL should end in .jpg. If it doesn't, you probably aren't viewing the image on its own.
If you're trying to get the URL of an image that you don't own, you may not be able to access the Different Sizes page (because the owner isn't allowing downloads of their photo).
Note: Our Terms of Use dictate that whenever you place an image you're storing on Flickr on an external website, you also need to include a link back to Flickr.
