Just a Question?

In the past i have always linked photos here from my flickr account. In the last week or so it is no langer working. Is there a reason for this on my end or some new step i'm leaving out. Usally simply type "the link" when i do this now the preview only shows the small box with a red x in it. Can anybody help?

Sounds like you're doing it right. Make sure you're copying the image location and not a link location. I've done that in FireFox and gotten the same results.

They have an option to share this photo...dropdown to grab the link..... that link will not work... but right click, properties, Address (URL) seems to be working properly. Not as smooth but it works.....

I have trouble linking to photos in flickr as well. But, it could be my privacy/security settings on flickr. So, I usually just upload the photo here for posting. But, I don't post all that many, so, I haven't worried about running out of hosting space.
