To post pictures on the threads. I have a flickr accoutn.
Way back when, I would resize, do a search. upload, and voil?, there they were full size.

Not I can't seem to get them to come up...as per latest effort on the "Fatalities over East Week" thread..

Help would be appreciated: Step-by-step, please.

here's a go

Here is one way, how I would do it anyway. Does not make it the only or right way.

1. Log in to Flickr.
2. Upload your content to Flickr.
3. Click on the picture you want to post on DR1.
4. Note the top of the pic has "Actions" and a few icons next to that word with a drop down arrow.
5. Click the drop down arrow next to the Facebook icon.
6. Click grab HTML code. I would use medium.
7. Copy this code.
8. Paste into your DR1 post.

Here is an example:
<a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/mainegirl/4368113189/" title="DR2010 by Amity Beane, on Flickr"><img src="http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2679/4368113189_03a943312c.jpg" width="500" height="281" alt="DR2010"></a>
You can also go larger:
<a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/mainegirl/4368113189/" title="DR2010 by Amity Beane, on Flickr"><img src="http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2679/4368113189_03a943312c_z.jpg" width="640" height="360" alt="DR2010"></a>

Perhaps you clicked Actions>View all sizes?

Look for the Facebook icon...there is a little tiny black arrow you need to click.
From there, look for Grab HTML code.

Hummm:

<a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/30635597@N00/5646546366/" title="4369071878_d64e955934_b by hillbilly8391, on Flickr"><img src="http://farm6.static.flickr.com/5186/5646546366_6ca7893e5e.jpg" width="500"


Yes, you identified my mistake. Thanks. I clicked on the left arrow, not the "right" arrow...

Now it seems kind of easy...

Blessing, my child...

Hillbilly I went to the former British Guyana a few years ago, and all the houses are built that way. The kitchen, living, bed rooms are on the second flood and they have hammock hanging on the open floor below. I never saw a house like in the DR or the USA there.
