Testing linking from Yahoo Flicr

This is my first shot at uploading a photo to any webpage so please dont shoot me if this does not work. Im trying from the new Yahoo Flicr facility. It seems quite easy to use and a duffer like me has easily been able to upload pics. No fuss like I experienced in photobucket. Here goes…..

The trick is NOT to upload from Flikr, but to use the IMG tag and supply the URL at which the picture resides.

What you seem to have tried to do is to try to upload with the “Manage Attachments” button from another website (Flikr), which can’t be done.

The Insert IMG tag is the little yellow box with black mountain & sun.

You can add as many pictures as you like then.

There is a limit to the total number of images that will be stored by the Flypast Forum’s server on your behalf. If you post too many, you’ll be asked to delete older ones to make some room.

Good luck, and remember to look on the Flikr page for that URL.

It is explained in greater detail if you Click Here!

Yay, uploaded from the PC not Yahoo. The pic was taken at Portimao airfield which is about 40m east on the coast from Faro. It was one of two Dornier 28s that were carrying out paradropping onto Portimao Airfield.
