Posting pics from flickr

[wyly]

I just found a different Suzuki forum to post my pics with zero hassle, I've no patience with the convoluted system here of finding a fiddly photo hosting site.

Browse photo folder, click and post, that's how simple it should and can be.

A quick look at the staff directory tells me this is primarily a European Suzuki group.

It's international mostly european but there are also Canadians, Americans, Aussies, kiwis everyone is welcome. I'm also not the only GS resources member there. Only requirements to join are "read and obey" the rules and have a thick skin the comments/humour can be blunt but it's all good.

If you like following build projects it's a great forum, there are some amazing projects that should interest any Suzuki owner.

I posted a site here once with a workaround but Bob's way looks easier... I don't think they offered that back then

I noticed this thread and figured that I'd throw in another method of getting pics in a post. I am assuming that with Flickr that you can get the URL to the pic. There are many ways of getting this URL but the methods will differ whether you are on a PC or a laptop. For instance I grabbed this Flickr URL from a post listed above - https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/...a88944b_c.jpg/. Once you have the URL then click on the Image icon in the toolbar of this editor. It's the icon that looks has a mountain and a sun in it. A box will pop up so then enter the URL and whatever other params you want. Click OK and the image should be in your post. You can resize to whatever size you want. If you need to tweak the pic in your post just double-click on the pic.

For me, that's pretty easy. The trickiest part is getting the URL for the picture. Some websites do things to stop you from doing that because linking a photo like that causes traffic on their websites without you actually being on their website. Most things like Flickr don't stop from what I can see. I hope this helps.

The Flickr mobile site doesn't have the bbcode.
You have to use the dropdown in the mobile to switch to the desktop version. See post #12.
