    Augghhhh....I'm giving up for the night...all I can seem to do is manage to paste the link without getting the photo in the post...tried all the instructions but obviously I'm hopelessly clueless today. Sleep deprivation I suppose.

    Computers can really drive you nuts, eh...

    With the flickr account you're copying the link that's in the window right at the top of the screen. But you need to copy the BBCode. Try again tomorrow, following the steps in the thread I gave you the link to :)

    In the meantime I will put your pic up in the other thread so everyone can see it :)

    Re: A test

    I your dropbox photo in a public folder (does your dropbox HAVE a public folder, i think the alternative is to just make it public or make it for sharing by a right click from new dropbox????)
    When I post from public folder it changes the prefix of the photo link.

    Take a look at my last post in here. Might help??

    Thanks Rachael and Jacqui....I have also attempted to post the photo using the BBC code from Flickr as well, but it continues to just post the link....I think I'm possibly in the Bermuda Triangle of Technology this week. I work from home and my work systems have all been a disaster as well...

    It's a real pain when the tech doesn't seem to work for you.

    You're copying the wrong code, once you've got your image up on Flickr, click the little arrow thing bottom right, then copy the BB code. Hint, it will have URL at the start of the code line
