I swear, I've been searching on the forum for a while now and I can't find the answer...

This is what I'm trying to do:

If you look at my signature, you can see the thread I started called "The Myth of outrageous new Canon lens prices".

I have updated my charts and they are too big to attach so I decided to upload my Excel spreadsheet charts saved as jpg on my Flickr account.

The Flickr set is here:

http://www.flickr.com …s/sets/72157631​066218932/ (external link)

There are 6 pictures that I would like to link to my thread as an update but what I get is this:

IMAGE NOT FOUND
Content warning: data
<------ Does not show the picture!

The steps I follow are the following:
1) On flickr I click on my pics, i.e. http://www.flickr.com/​photos/andrikos/778186​4106/ (external link)
2) I click on share
3) On "grab the link" I copy the link (http://www.flickr.com/​photos/andrikos/778186​4106/ (external link))
4) I click on the "Insert Image" icon above my edit window
5) paste the flickr link in the window and press OK
IMAGE NOT FOUND
Content warning: data

6) I press preview post button to see if it worked and it doesn't!

What am I doing wrong?
Please help! :)


PS I wasn't sure where to post this btw...

I've been trying to do that for a couple of hours now...

The link you attached:

http://farm8.staticfli​ckr.com …81864106_f78bd1​2e9f_b.jpg (external link)

is not the same as the one that Flickr shows me:

http://www.flickr.com/​photos/andrikos/778186​4106/ (external link)

How did you get the jpg link?

<a href="http://www.flick​r.com/photos/andrikos/​7781913176/" title="Canon Super Telephoto Primes by Andrikos, on Flickr"><img src="http://farm9.stat​icflickr.com/8441/7781​913176_83baf49f22_b.jp​g" width="1024" height="766" alt="Canon Super Telephoto Primes"></a>

Gotcha!
Thanks for the superfast help Saturnin.

I could write a poem in Greek if you like.
It's a very poetic language... ;)

as promised, enjoy! ;)

Ιθάκη


Σα βγεις στον πηγαιμό για την Ιθάκη,
να εύχεσαι νάναι μακρύς ο δρόμος,
γεμάτος περιπέτειες, γεμάτος γνώσεις.
Τους Λαιστρυγόνας και τους Κύκλωπας,
τον θυμωμένο Ποσειδώνα μη φοβάσαι,
τέτοια στον δρόμο σου ποτέ σου δεν θα βρεις,
αν μεν' η σκέψις σου υψηλή, αν εκλεκτή
συγκίνησις το πνεύμα και το σώμα σου αγγίζει.
Τους Λαιστρυγόνας και τους Κύκλωπας,
τον άγριο Ποσειδώνα δεν θα συναντήσεις,
αν δεν τους κουβανείς μες στην ψυχή σου,
αν η ψυχή σου δεν τους στήνει εμπρός σου.
Να εύχεσαι νάναι μακρύς ο δρόμος.
Πολλά τα καλοκαιρινά πρωϊά να είναι
που με τι ευχαρίστησι, με τι χαρά
θα μπαίνεις σε λιμένας πρωτοειδωμένους,
να σταματήσεις σ' εμπορεία Φοινικικά,
και τες καλές πραγμάτειες ν' αποκτήσεις,
σεντέφια και κοράλλια, κεχριμπάρια κ' έβενους,
και ηδονικά μυρωδικά κάθε λογής,
όσο μπορείς πιο άφθονα ηδονικά μυρωδικά,
σε πόλεις Αιγυπτιακές πολλές να πας,
να μάθεις και να μάθεις απ' τους σπουδασμένους.
Πάντα στον νου σου νάχεις την Ιθάκη.
Το φθάσιμον εκεί ειν' ο προορισμός σου.
Αλλά μη βιάζεις το ταξείδι διόλου.
Καλλίτερα χρόνια πολλά να διαρκέσει
και γέρος πια ν' αράξεις στο νησί,
πλούσιος με όσα κέρδισες στο δρόμο,
μη προσδοκώντας πλούτη να σε δώσει η Ιθάκη.
Η Ιθάκη σ'έδωσε τ' ωραίο ταξείδι.
Χωρίς αυτήν δεν θάβγαινες στον δρόμο.
Άλλα δεν έχει να σε δώσει πια.
Κι αν πτωχική την βρεις, η Ιθάκη δε σε γέλασε.
Έτσι σοφός που έγινες, με τόση πείρα,
ήδη θα το κατάλαβες οι Ιθάκες τι σημαίνουν.

Haha!
Drachmas are (thankfully) extinct never to come back (hopefully).
Plus my computer cannot handle that many zeros! ;)

I realize you already have a method, but there is a slightly easier way as well.

Click the share button, choose the drop down size and make sure you have the radio button at the bottom as BB Code and just paste it in your reply, it will just work. (attached screenshot for reference)
