Title: Photo Posting Problems
Post by: Ian on June 05, 2009, 08:09:41 PM
Hey all!

I have been having trouble with posting photos of mine from my Picasa accound. Everytime I use the IMG key to post it, it comes up with a box with a red X in it like so...
(https://www.aaroads.com/forum/proxy.php?request=http%3A%2F%2Fpicasaweb.google.com%2FIansignal%2FNewJerseyTrafficSignalsAndRoadSigns%235341343957912988306&hash=89ef1632e463c53dcdbdc50aec9e03c469f48bce)

...so therefore, I have to just insert a link (here was the photo BTW: http://picasaweb.google.com/Iansignal/NewJerseyTrafficSignalsAndRoadSigns#5341343957912988306 (http://picasaweb.google.com/Iansignal/NewJerseyTrafficSignalsAndRoadSigns#5341343957912988306))

Whats wrong?
Ian

Picasa must have disabled embedding of images from there...

Worked for me ;)

Try right clicking, then "view image" (assumption: firefox) basically getting the image directly

Well I could also get the images off of google images because Picasa web album photos do show up there.

How do you resize?

[IMG width=XXX height=XXX]URL[/IMG]
(having both width and height is optional--you only need one)

I had longterm problems with Picasa and hotlinking pictures, that's why I switched to a Flickr Pro account.
