Is anyone having problems posting photos from Flicker? It doesn't work for me anymore.

Ok, well what am I doing wrong? I right click on the photo, go to properties and cut and paste the address? Then highlight and hit Img.

I have done it lots before, can't figure out what I am missing! Image


Thanks!

Thanks! I never knew you could do it that way. Obviously it doesn't work my old way anymore! This is much easier!

Ok, so I am not going crazy. Thanks mbw. I have been doing and forgetting some things lately that have made me question my sanity.

Don't fear you are not crazy. Flickr changed something. Anyway when you have the picture you want open click on the "all sizes" just above the picture, I usually pick medium, then you can rightclick it and get properties with the .jpg ending. If that is not there it won't work.
