Hi all,
I haven't posted photos here for quite some time, and in that time it would appear that Flickr has changed it's guidelines on allowing links to other sites. Could someone please tell me how to get it to allow me to share?


Shoot first, ask questions later.

Yeah, they made it a bit different than it used to be:

Yup; you don't need the [IMG] tags, though. Just go ahead and post the BBCode directly into your post.

Often you see POTN members post a image linked to Flickr and below there's a writing:

[photo] by [Artist]

(both links to Flickr)

Do they add this manually, or automated? Thanks!

The text below the image is automated by the steps I posted above. Just remember to NOT use the image tags; just paste the BBCode directly into the post.

Thanks also from me ;-)a It's the BBCode in Step 3 which was not on by default and gives a headache before spotted!
