No more photo linking from Flickr?

[Godfrey]

keep in mind that some threads around here have HTML disabled. Ive noticed this sporadically.

Generally, poll threads disable HTML.

This has turned into a wonderful random photo thread.

All the iphone images auto sync via my cel or wifi connection within a few minutes of taking them.
I save images on my eye-fi cards in RAW and jpeg from the fuji or Canon cameras.

Does your phone then only have a thumbnail like when one syncs to the Apple iCloud?

I do it on my phone because it saves a lot of space, since the iPhone only has tiny thumbnails, I do have to back up the iCloud. I only have 16Gb on my phone.

The image stays on my Phone "camera roll" until deleted.
On tge Flickr app it's a thumb in this view until opened. There are other viewing options on the full flickr site version (non phone app).

I tried iCloud but I'm too cheap to pay to expand storage.
I only sync vital phone things to iCloud acct to save space and stay in the 5GB free zone.

Apple need to stretch that bit out. 5GB is barely a tease as storage goes.
It's not just the 5gb but also the plans offered for upgrade. Not a particularly good value with "free" options available.
My phone id 64gb so I'm more carefree than I was in the past with images and docs that I store on it.

Pardon the dumb question, bit does that affect pasting in the BBCode?

I just tried it on an iPad2 running iOS7 in Safari. It still works. Select image, select share arrow, for adding link to web pages select embed tab. HTML code will be in the middle of the window. For discussion forums like RFF select the BBCode tab. Again, the code will be in the middle of the window.

The only change has been they throw in extra code for attribution back to Flickr. Just delete the code you don't want.

That is correct, but have you tried to select and copy it? That's where it's broken on my iPad (a mini 3): I can find no way of selecting the link in its entirety for copying.

I can do it with an external keyboard, however.

Oh yes: I am running iOS 8.4.1. You're a bit behind the current version. If Flickr is also a year and a half behind current in their testing team, that explains a lot ... '-)

Yesterday evening the BBCode line reappeared - perhaps they are reading RFF over there at Flickr... Anyway, thanks to everybody for help - will be useful the next time...
