Pics in posts

[devonc]

Can you put a picture from a Yahoo album into a post? I have tried everything (copying the properties, etc) and it still shows up as a link. It worked when I used a different picture service, but I really like Yahoo and would hate to change if I don't have to.

Thanks!

I dont know! If you can right click the photo and find out the photo url, maybe you can link that?

Congrats on your new job!

Post the link here and we'll see if we can't show it as a pic. :thumb

I don't think yahoo allows that type of photosharing. That might be your problem.

I was afraid that might be it. Here is a test sample:

Here is a sample from yahoo:

The Two Peas one (which should show up, not sure yet) ends in .jpg, but the Yahoo one doesn't. Do you think that makes a difference?

Sub-question: what photo album/ sites allow you to link directly to the pictures?

Thanks for the help!! (And thanks for the congrats, Pam!)

yahoo doesn't allow photo hijacking.

[devonc]

Ah. So it's for sure. *sigh*... so where can I hijack photos from? :lookroun:
