I was getting ready to post a AAR with pictures like I've been doing recently, with imbedded URLS from the pictures on my Flickr site. But Flickr has changed the site and I can;t figure out how to do it. Used to be, when I had the image wanted, right click on it and one choice would be save image URL. Paste that into the TMP thread and presto, photo appeared. Now that choice isn't there when I right click. I hunted around and the best I can get is a link that people have to click to see that one photo, not near as nice as a thread with imbedded photos. Can anyone help me out? I have a short AAR with 9 photos to post.

OK, can do it with Photobucket. AAR coming soon.

Did it. Photobucket is easier too.

Yeah..Flickr did their "new and improved" thing…

Imageshack did the same thing…

I just wish a photo hosting site wouldn't keep changing their formats every time the wind changed….

It's a an IT world mantra: "if it works, change it so it's screwed up". Look at Yahoo groups for more evidence.
Bill, take note!

Flickr and Imageshack suck, in my humble opinion.

My tired old PC nearly freezes up when accessing them, which I rarely do on purpose, anymore.
