changes that might effect flickr image codes?
Since last night I have not been able to get the flickr image codes I normally use to work here at TFP. I brought the issue up in the flickr help forum, supplied a code to someone who offered to help and he was able to use the code properly on another forum with no problem.
has there been a change made in the last 24 hours or so that might be causing this problem? thanks. |
I had trouble sometime back too. Amonkie was here and she solved it asap. If she doesn't pop in here you might PM her.

All of mine have been showing as copyrighted lately, so I do think they've defaulted everything that way a couple of months ago or so. Nothing I see new in the very recent past, though.
If you right click and choose "View Image Info" and choose "Location", is it listed as a *.jpg? If so, you should be able to copy that link code and post it here. Hope that helps. ---------- Post added at 08:10 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:55 PM ---------- I just went back and for some reason was unable to pull location as the copyright info came up. If this happens, just click on large and right-click from the larger version to get the location. TFP will let you resize it when you're posting it. I think. :p |

thank you, jewels. it seems to be allowing me to post that way. |
curious, do any of your old ones work without issue?

you mean photos that were posted previously? they seem to be fine.
when I post a photo using Flickr's BBCode (which is what I've been using lately) I get two blank Flickr video boxes instead of the image. but i seem to be able to bypass the problem by using the photo location address...just takes more time. |
I don't know exactly when flickr installed the automatically-generated codes for BB, blogs, and whatever else; I'm guessing since their last major update (Jan. of last year) but ever since someone else suggested it here in support, (it might have been fiatguy, 10% chance?) I go the route of simplicity for attribution.
[flickr image page url] [image address, rehosted or sought to use with permission from original flickr fotog] [/flickr image page url] -- {additional info, which can include, but is not limited to: image title, author's name, location, date shot, situation, etc.} - - - or you can see how I go about my routine below... i.e. Quote:
