Please, please, please, please, please, please, please, please, please, please, please, please, please, please, please, please, please, please, please, please, please, Andy or someone, can you put back the instructions for posting photos quickly and easily (and free) here? <br><br>I use Picasa web albums and whoever designed this has cretinously made the 'link to url' so it doesn't work.  I had similar trouble with Flickr.  What is supposed to happen doesn't.  I am forced instead to upload to a web site with all the hassle that involves of sizing, passwords, FTP, blah blah.  Grrr.<br><br>Can anyone recommend a free photo sharing site that does what it's supposed to?<br>

<span style="font-weight: normal; ">The instructions for this version of the site are that you can add the link directly to an </span><b>image</b> rather than a page with an image on it.<div style="font-weight: normal; "><br></div><div style="font-weight: normal; ">Flickr doesn't make this easy, but it is possible. On Flickr, go to your photo, then right-click it. It gives you options for different sizes and the copyright. Click "500". This goes through to a new page. You can then right-click that image and "copy image URL". Paste this link into the box above.</div><div style="font-weight: normal; "><br></div><div style="font-weight: normal; ">You should get this: </div><div style="font-weight: normal; "><br></div><div style="font-weight: normal; "><img src="http://farm7.staticflickr.com/6161/6169114672_8209e13726.jpg" style="font-size: 10pt; "></div>

As for Picasa (or it might be Google+, but whatever it is, it's all horrid and I don't use it) when I select a picture I can right-click on that and select "copy image location". You can paste that into the image box.

I am indeed dumb, it's the .jpg and not the page that matters....I really will try to learn.<br><br>Where's the 'like the elephant' button?<br>

I heart the elephant. Makes me smile every day on my way to work.

Me too...deep admiration for the elephant topiarist.

@Fstrthnthspdflght, just curious - do you have a particular dislike of vowels?

The elephant is starting a trend - there's a Thomas the Tank Engine on its way in Perth Rd.

I accidentally walked into the elephant walking down that road last week. Only once I'd grumbled inside that the hedge bumped oddly into the road did I realise I had been glanced by a local landmark. <br>

I wish you'd post more of your photos here @FourEyes, you have some really glorious pictures of the area.

In fact, a Flickr set of all your SG/London photos would be fab! <br>
