Hi,
I may be doing something wrong, but today I tried adding photos from photobucket and flickr using the urls and I kept getting error messages and could not do it....

Thanks for checking, any help is appreciated.

Hi Ardan,

For Flickr you would to use the BCC code and for photobucket I believe you want to use the third link in the list of four. I know for Flickr you simply paste the link into the reply box. The same may be true for photobucket. Holler back if you continue to have issues with photobucket and I will go play with it.

Thanks Pat,
I did try the 3rd (html) and 4th box (Image/URL) from photobucket, but the software here after using insert image says invalid file.....

On Flicker it does not give me the bcc code anymore like it use to, the options are facebook, tumblr, twitter, pintrest, and mail. (all under share photo)

I must be doing something wrong, I've done it before without problem....

If you have time to check it, I would appreciate it, no rush.

Thanks
Ardan

I upgraded to windows 10 recently. It will not give the bbcode at flicker.
I did get the bbcode through firefox at flicker, but when I insert it into the url box in insert photo, I still get "invalid file". (using firefox)

Not sure if it is this computer or what the problem is.

Ardan, when you get the BCCode just copy the link from Flickr and paste the link directly in the reply box here on Simply. I will go see if I can login photobucket.

Ardan, you use the img code directly from photobucket or same as Flickr. Copy it and paste it directly into the reply box here on Simply.

Got the bbcode through firefox, pasted directly in the reply box and works well
My mistake, plus windows 10 browser Edge....
