Somehow I've been on here for a while now without feeling the need to post or share a photo ... But have just tried to share, from Flickr, a photo (on the "show me your bikes with skinwalls" thread ... and it didn't work.

The forum help page doesn't really ... help.

So. What am I doing wrong? Is Flickr the place to share from or are there better sites? Ideally I'd just share from Instagram if that were possible ...

Using an Android phone rather than a laptop.

Ta.

use postimages.org - gives you the direct link, you can organise your pics, upload from any device. Very simple, no faff.

Almost impossible to share from Flickr using a phone. Or if it is I've never worked it out!

You need the image address that ends in .jpg which you then paste into the link box.

You need to find a copy of flickr2bbcode for your Android. It's no longer on the Google Play Store but search for it...

Once installed, go to flickr as normal, click on the little shardng icon (3 dots), scroll down to flickr2bbcode. That puts the URL in your Clipboard. Go to forum and just hit Paste.

/\ that, just post the url of the image. Doesn’t matter if on a mobile or not, still works

I was going to recommend imgur but my postings appear to have “we value your privacy” - not sure if everyone else sees it or how to get rid
