I am still all ears to learn a simplified method of getting the image BBCode to paste into posts, especially when a series of several images have to be dealt with.

Well done Eric, You don't NEED the bits of code outside of the [img sq brackets}.

Take a look at my screenshot above.

I think according to Flickers T&C's you are supposed to include all the code, so they can track where 'their' (YOUR) images are being posted and they get the credit.

Thanks will do. :thumbs:

Robert seemed a bit perplexed the other day with posting flickr images . so for illustration here's how

go to flickr and open photo to post

on bottom right of screen there are three actions click on the middle one ARROW

a drop down box should open with four different settings ,click on BBCODE , select size I leave its set on 1024 pixels . (you only need to do this once ) and its stored .

click on box then command and C (COPY)

then go to forum ,command and V to paste it to your thread , takes all of 15 seconds to do from start to finish
:readthis:

just done this one

looking back over my shoulder by jeff and jan cohen, on Flickr

check the time

Thank you Jeff, very nice Blackbird, I have (rather clumsily) merged the two topics to avoid duplication and confusion.

That's what I do, I already have the BBCode selected, but there are several clicks (and minutes) to find/get to the required image, you don't mention those... That's what I am complaining about.

In my opinion you should be able to select the image you want in the camera roll and obtain the BBCode directly from there rather than going through all these screens.

For example drag the thumbnail to a box which would cause the code to be generated, or Control click and select copy BBCode from a list of options.

Stop losing stuff then rob , if you tag your images when posting in the first place there's a thing called a search box o.O

. The mind boggles if I can do it at 73 I'm sure you can :whip:
