hey Jay,


it's

so just put the link between those img things

e.g.

^ tried to be fancy and use one of your links haha

Like this you mean Jay?

Exactly as Vamps said....

All I did was cut the information for the image from your link and paste it inbetween the brackets...

Like this (but without the spaces):

Don't forget the / in the second

otherwise it doesn't work.

Also remove the " " (speech marks) as well.

Geez, we're so bossy!

Jay i had trouble with this too yesterday, when you paste the URL in the forum automatically changes it to a link (like that you can click on and take you somewhere. So when when you cut and paste the link in press 'backspace' which removes the url tag and then it should work.

You can alternatively go to the Flickr photo press the button above where it has share option, grab the photos BBCode and paste it straight into your post. Something like this results.

It worked! I was trying to post in another forum. I usually use Photobucket, but it wasn't even loading the home page for me for some reason last night so thought i'd try Flickr.

Thanks for all the help and advise guys, really appreciate it.

When it comes to computers i am a bit of a retard lol

See if that works. Good thing you asked Jay I had no idea how to do it.

It worked the photos look much better when there loaded from flickr. Thats my female bredli (currently for sale in for sale section)

Hahahahahaha!!!! Where it matters, i am good lol

This is something I will never ever know about from personal experience

But I must say - you learn quickly

I found copying that whole link and posting it here is easier than the alternatives...

Here's how you do it.

1. Find the Image you want
2. Click the down arrow next to the mail/facebook/twitter icons
3. click one "grab the HTML/BBCode
4. click the BBCode
5. Select the size of the image
6. then copy the code into where you want to post it.

Here's an image I Screen shot of the process and what it looks like.

What I usually do with the code if you don't want it linked etc is just delete all the extra info except the [IMG ] [/IMG ] section.

So instead of this
