hyperlinking to flickr where you actually get hits

[Legdog]

Casey explained this to me

put a hyperlink on the photo so that if someone happens to click it, it opens the flickr page for that photo. Not many will click it, but some will.

Embed the link in your posted photo.

Link the pic normally, with the little mountain button thingy. Once you see the image in your message editor, click on it and hit hte hyperlink button, earth/chain deal. Paste in the link not to the photo itself, but to the flickr page with the comments for hte photo.

my example (click on pic to test)

Sea World San Antonio at night

Clicked the link and it tells me it's not valid....

[Casey]

When you click on the hyperlink button (globe with chain) paste this in for the link

by the way guys... hits on flickr give us "street cred"... the more we hit and comment on each other's stuff the more "important" our work becomes

please support your local TBH inspired flickr!

dog-gone you Steven, you know flickr's blocked here at work and you just keep on with the flickr. Karma or something like it is gonna get you.

[Legdog]

heck I already broke my leg!

I'm sorry Billy... my only suggestion is to see if the school will let you connect outside the firewall... or wait till you get home.

I imagine my company will block it sooner rather than later.

Cool! Can you imbed a small that links to a large?

[Snakelover]

Ahhhh! That's the way to do the contest photos. Imbed your medium photo, but link it to your large one in case someone wants to see more detail.
