HELP!!! When I post an image, it doesnt appear!

[Seppi3]

Please can somebody assist, I am aware of the limitations of the image and the longest side should not be more than 800 pixels. However after resizing these images using Paintshop Pro and uploading, a sqaure with a red cross held within appears.
What am I doing wrong.

post, or pm me, what you are trying to do. It could be one of a number of things at fault.

I think you're posting the link to the flickr page. If you right click the image on flickr, copy image/link location and then use the img tags when you post it should work like so. (this works in firefox, see below for explorer 7)

Yep, that's what it is, here's the pic linked direct from your flickr account

Edit: Above was using firefox. Explorer looks to be slightly different. Right click on flickr and choose properties. Copy the address and past it in here between the img tags again, eg. You need to add [ at the start of the first img for it to work though

what you need to do is if you use flickr, right click on the image and do properties, it will show a image location on that window, highlight all of it and copy that to the [img ] tags ans it will work, what you had done was copy the link in the www line on the browser and that is just to the flickr page not the image
