Didn't work. I loaded the URL address into the picture address bar but the picture icon had a broken corner and it did not load. Any suggestions??

[Thetyim]

Works for me, so you must be doing something wrong,

You have to click on this
and then enter the image location

The default for the pic icon already has "http" inserted so you have to be careful that you don't paste the "http" twice...the most common reason why folks get the pic icon with the broken corner...

Works for me..go to your picassa site...put the mouse over the pic...right click and then click on "copy image location"...now come back to TD and then left click on then "ctrl V" will insert the URL...result will be your picture showing like below...

Sorry, do not see a "picture showing like below" in your reply?????

[Thetyim]

Yep, I suspect it is the image host not allowing you to link.
I reloaded the picture in post #46 and it has disappeared again.

You will have to use the TD gallery or find another host.

Brilliant mate.

Can this thread be saved so that those of us that need it can refer quicky and easily in future please DD?

RD: oops...where did it go? As Tetters said, it was there but now it's not...TD gallery is your best bet really...

[Rdrokit]

Thanks for trying. It will let me hot link but not down load the photo. Oh, well. Looks the the TD gallery for me.

on this test photobucket would be a better choice than pbase

Point taken "dirtydog", for speed O.K., but for me, Pbase.com is an independent photo site which I pay a few dollars for each and every year. Linking is no problems from there, but you are safe and secure that once being bumped off a forum you Kan go and switch off your links, rather than the forum you have posted your photos on, will be always on their site.

The same has to be said about Photobucket, but then they delete what they want too, as it is free of charge.

Thank you for posting Number 5Home - Thaivisa.com54.61 KB 3.64 seconds 0.07 seconds. Only posted a few photos in their gallery.

That said, I post me own photos on Pbase.com and me udder tinkings in Photobucket which I use as a joke or two.

I only post photos on here and Ajarn.com only to complement both sites in the Travel section, as I see there is a wee bit lacking (photo wise that is), from my point of "View".


At Home - Thaivisa.com you know where I am, but it is indifferent from your site that your members posts photos of their tarvels which I do enjoy and it is not the matter of what the speed of down loading the photos are.
