Uploading photos

March 9th, 2011
I know how to add a photo from 365 to a discussion but could someone tell me how to add a photo from Facebook, Flickr or my pictures to a discussion. Thanks

I don't know about facebook but on flickr you just select the image you want, and then click on the 'share this' tab above it. You'll probably want the 'Grab the HTML/BBCode' option.

@craigdtull - thank you Craig. Just tried it and surprise, surprise it worked.

From FB (or just about anywhere else), right click the image, select "properties", copy the URL, come back over here, use the image src code (shown in 'How can I format my reply?" below), paste in the URL, and viola!

@tkallen - thanks for that and it sounded pretty easy too but..... I don't get a "properties" choice when I right click on my photos in FB

@kjarn it should be the very last option in the menu that pops up when you right-click.

@genesislomax - the last option I get when I right click is "View page info". If I click on that do I then copy the address at the top?

@genesislomax - Actually I just tried that and all it posted was a link to the photo, not the actual photo. Thanks for the suggestion though.

@kjarn - just to make sure we're on the same page, you have the picture open, you hover over the picture itself, and then right click. Yes? And are you on a pc or a mac?

@tkallen - yep, hover over, right click but no properties on the list that pops up. I'm on a PC

@kjarn
Now you've got me stumped... and I don't like to be stumped. Can you take a screen shot of the box you're getting and e-mail it to me? tkallen@myctmh.com

@tkallen - I wasn't sure what a screen shot is but I've taken a photo of the screen and emailed it to you. Thanks so much.

@kjarn I was out partying at the rodeo last night but I'll look into this today and see if I an figure out what's going on. =)
