Problem Posting Photos: How Do I Do It From My Paid Fotki Account?

[Jason Rothgeb]

I was able to do this back in May of last year, but since then either things have changed or I've forgotten how to do it. I pasted in the address from the "Share on other websites" option in the window that popped up when I clicked on the insert image icon. What I got was a message saying "No dynamic images allowed" or something like that if that isn't the exact language. What did I do wrong? Thanks in advance, Jason

Very simple: You have spaces between the IMG tags and your url. Trust me.... Been there, done that, got the T-shirt

Switch to photobucket. Free and user-friendly.

I got it to work by following Bob downies idea. I deleted everything past the .jpg

Glad you made it work. It always has to end with the .jpg (or any other picture format) extension. If you right click the image and check on properties, you need to delete whatever is after the .jpg extension.

In Jason's case, he is using the "share photo" button, which includes 1 blank space at the front and 2 at the end when you copy and paste. I think that may be on purpose to prevent automated scritps to hijack picture URLs.

Thanks,

Photo bucket is blocked from my work so if you display a pic I can't see it.
