Please could someone tell me why I cannot see my pictures via url's from Flickr. The pop up box to add pictures isn't working for me either. cheers

I am not sure on this as I don't use flickr. I know one or two on the forum use the site so they may be able to help, mawganmad springs to mind.

Not sure about the pop-up box, as Al says, AiXAdmin might have an idea on this one.

Cheers

The Flickr image links are there if you look deeper into the code, I think this is one for Dave to look at.

I'm not familiar with flicker but I Googled it and visited the site - chose the first image I saw. Right clicked photo properties and copy/pasted the URL into the insert image location field (taking care to uncheck the retrieve remotely checkbox) and it appears to work OK. So not sure what the problem is - more info?

As this isn`t a searchlight related picture I'll delete later.

But that's so cute!

I'll move them to a new thread soon!!

My Flickr photo display page had completely changed, there is an option on the new page to "share", including by "email" - which opens a new window to write an email. However, there is no URL given to paste somewhere else, all I can do is to copy the URL in the browser page address line. If I email the photo, it emails it, and gives a link to the photo, which is the same URL as the browser page address. Confused - looks like I'm an early user of a Flickr development if you ask me.

When I paste the photo URL in the AIX "insert image", it obviously does not know that it is a photo - it's a page address that will display the photo within Flickr, not something that ends in ".jpg". Useless springs to mind.
