Posting pics from flickr

I have been trying to post some pics, linked from my flickr page, but every time I get a 'invalid file' error message. Anyone know how to make it work?

 

Thanks for the suggestion, but when I was trying to post the pics, after the first link didn't work, I did open the photo in its own page and selected 'share', copied that link (which, it turns out, is the same as the one I'd get from he above procedure), and still got the same error message. I'm stumped. Here's an example: http://www.flickr.com/photos/28692493@N05/7083607345/

I just went back and found the option "grab the html/BB code, and though it is five lines long, a small part of it is a link such as yours above. So, if I copy it and paste it into a document, then copy out just the link and then paste that in the image manager, it would probably work, but this is a laborious process, so I don't think I want to go that route. I'm going to try posting them on my own page and see if I can work it from there. Probably should have started there anyway, but the flickr thing 'seemed' like it would be easy.

 

Thanks, Marni. In fact, I just did exactly that and it worked!

I do have one more question: when I have the "insert image" box open and have pasted in the url, there is an option already checked: "retrieve remote file and reference locally"

Should I leave this checked or uncheck it? I left it checked this time, but what exactly is it doing?

 

Excellent! I had no idea I could just use html directly. SO much easier! Thanks!
