my photo

[perthshiregriff]

sorted out a photo of my griff at webshots no idea how to put one in a topic as many of you seem to do though

[Mrs Fish]

Have a read of this thread and hopefully all should become clear

i feel like a genius

[Mrs Fish]

errmm.... it doesn't work...

[perthshiregriff]

i see it

[chim_girl]

This is the odd picture linking thing again. Half of us can see it and half can't.

[perthshiregriff]

chim girl, does that mean you can or cant. what resolution should the pic be, could that be the problem

[Mrs Fish]

when I double click on the red box, which usually then shows me the picture, I get this

http://community.webshots.com/s/image8/4/51/61/118045161GRyPgo_ph.jpg

very odd, don't think it is anything to do with resolution, it's just very strange and annoying.

It's probably an anti-hotlinking thing. You probably need to link to the page that the image is on rather than the image itself which probably gets a temporary filename.

[Mrs Fish]

ah, that would make sense

Try Fotango, always works for me and simple to use.

[Mrs Fish]

always works for me too, it's just a pity the pictures are so small.

This was exactly the same problem I had when I posted one of my pics. I recall Mrs Fish laughing helpfully at my plight!

Any ideas why this is happening?
