thanks

You'll have to have it hosted elsewhere, like photobucket.com in order to get it here.

This is what the code will look like to get a picture like the one below:

Code: Select all

maybe it's because of the hoster - I can see the pictures if I copy the link of your pictures in my browser.
you could try to enregister on photobucket or something like that...

I just try one of your pictures:

hm, it works?? What code did you use? I just used this (img)-thing and the link you posted in the other thread... :uhhh:

well -just now i could see the pics just fine where I posted them.... but not here...

If I use Kodakgallery to save my pics on the internet is it unlike hosting them? (I copied the url's from the picture's properties....)

thanks though - and that thread was very informative.

oh - if I host my pics in one of those sites - how does it work? do I delete it afterwards, or just leave it saved there?

No I don't see the picture anymore. :o this is weird.
I just thought maybe Kodakgallery doesn't want to link the pictures elsewhere and block it, but this was just an idea...

dunno - it's like I can see it sometimes and then I can't. (nothing to do with being logged on to Kodakgallery, I think... maybe I'll just post a link to where they're saved in there - but then people can see everything else saved there, I think...)
