I just cannot get Flickr to work on my phone.
Can anyone recommend a half decent alternative, that plays reasonably well with this forum?

Flickfolio app is good for viewing your Flickr stuff.

Linking to photos is straightforward when you're used to it, but a bit of a faff.

The trick with putting images on here from Flickr is to switch to desktop mode in your browser on the Flickr page, tap the little share arrow, copy the bb-code, then you just paste it into the text box on here. Dead easy really.

Flickr works OK for me, but imgur is handy for the occasional picture if you want to posit it here too.

Make sure your image is public.

Holy crap the bbcode works. All this time I've been extracting the URL from the 'download image' button!

postimages.org is the best no-nonsense one I've used so far.

Flickr bit dead for me now and have or will get photos deleted as not paying up. The site bit outdated and sharing buttons were always a faff. The social appeal of Flickr died as the audience was too diluted and too many bots. Not sure they'll recover that just by charging and culling photos. I share stuff on FB, Instagram, twitter now. Quality is pants but vast majority only view on a phone anyway.

My photos are in Onedrive and I can share on quality amongst friends and family from there, though not to sure about linking to a forum. I use imgur for that though.
