Okay, I have to cop to a great deal of frustration. I have been trying for two nights to put up a profile photo, because, after a year of anonymity, I have pictures that I like and a desire to have a public face. I tried once to post a photo on Yahoo, but Flickr professed incompatibility with the archaic Yahoo software. I can't store my photos on my own computer. I have a wife and three kids: one doesn't want to see anything like that, the others are blissfully ignorant of their father's sartorial quirkiness.
I have repeatedly put URLs into my profile. I have edited photos down to a miniscule size hoping that I would gain acceptance. The help documents at Flickr and Blogger have been read and re-read, and I genuinely believe I am following the instructions. But confidence in one's abilities is the hallmark of incompetence. I'm beginning to think that the ref is gonna call this fight. "Prepare to be assimilated. Resistance is futile."
If anyone knows any tricks to make this work, you will have my undying gratitude.

My suggestion would be to put your pictures on your computer in jpeg or gif form, upload them to Flickr, and then remove them from the computer. That's about all I can think of that might work.
ReplyDeleteWe tend to use photobucket.com When you upload a picture, it's safe, in your password protected account, and it automatically provides a direct-link URL that you can copy and paste into blogs. Make sure that when writing the blog, you switch to the "Source" mode which allows you to embed more html. should work. then again, .... judithmiquela6@gmail.com
