transferring pics from flikr

[Redwood Corgi]

I think things have really changed. So I chose the pic I wanted, then the pic comes up and I need to choose either "actions" or "share this". If I choose "share this" it gives me the following options: "enter email address, "grab the link", "grab the html/BBCode", or "blog it". If I choose the html/BBCode then the following appears, <a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/63498308@N00/5098021090/" title="IMG_0608 by timmytuna, on Flickr"><img src="http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4124/5098021090_7245c67bf4.jpg" width="500" height="375" alt="IMG_0608" /></a>

(what I used in the first attempt).

It seems that I can't upload from my iPhoto file either. I've uploaded photos before through Flickr but it was before the changes in the last few months.

I see the problem - in comparing your codes to Deb's - you'res doesn't show the photo as a jpg when I do the "properties" check on it.

The URL needs to end in .jpg - is there anywhere you can see an address on the photo like that?

Figured it out!

I clicked on "Photo - All Sizes" chose the medium, right-mouse clicked, got the URL that ended in jpg. The came here, hit reply, clicked on the little yellow icon and pasted the URL over top of the http// that was already there.

Okay Deb, realized what my problem is. NO RIGHT CLICK! I have that Apple mouse and it's only click or no click, so I'm not getting to properties! What a dummy I am!!! (banging head on desk top as I type) So how do I get the properties using this "new type of mouse?"

Okay in your first email - I copied the code I made red above, and pasted in the little yellow window icon. So, choose the share option and capture the BBCode and then just keep the part that starts at http:/ and ends in .jpg

Yay!!! Thanks for sticking it out and getting it!! :NOTWORTHY:

I guess I'm going to have to start posting pics more often so I won't forget and end up here next time! Won't that be a shame.:TWITCHY:

[Redwood Corgi]

Oh, I forgot to ask, is there a way to upload from iPhoto? instead of having to upload to another site and then C2BC? Like is there an app for that? :WINK:

[Jespah]

That would be awful. :WINK: It's nice to see so much of Timmy! Look forward to seeing more.

Nope, can't do it from iphoto. Has to be iphone-flickr-C2BC. But you should get a mouse with more buttons.:WINK:
(I'm a mac fan but I refuse to use their mice. Logitech, Logitech, Logitech!)

Or, you do an attachment to a C2BC post and not bother with flickr, it's available in the "Additional Options" box below the main posting box.
