Sharing Images From Flickr: The Easy Way

Comments

I don't know if anyone else is having problems with sharing images from Flickr recently but I have.

In the past you could 'right click >> copy image location' without a problem. Then I believe they introduced some privacy settings so that you could stop people doing this to your photos and using them on their own websites etc.

Now it seems as though you can't do it to any of the pictures on Flickr. I find this frustrating because I like to use Flickr to host images for this blog. It keeps everything running a lot faster by reducing the load on my server.

Through doing a few simple tests I found that there is an easy way to copy the URL of your image so that you can post it on a website or blog.

Simply go to the image you want, click 'All sizes.' and then right click. You should now be able to copy your image location and post it to your blog.

Hope this helps for a few people. It was certainly irritating me!
