I just wanted to contact CPF and ask why can I not post images in a flashlight review. It is 99.9% impossible to ask CPF administrator a question. I really value that our BLF administrator is easily reached for a question if needed. Thank you sb56637.
Sincerely,

Right click on your photo, paste the link over on CPF in the text window and add: at the end and then hit preview and see if it shows up.
Don’t use the photo icon button above the text window.
I got your photo to show up in a reply to a random thread just a minute ago.
When I use Flickr, I use the BBCode URL, out of the four and just trim off the other gibberish, so I don’t get the ‘Chris Garrett/hosted by Flickr’ crud that comes with the BBCode link.
I tried inserting a photo on a review I posted last December. I posted the link. Please have a look at what happened. I have to be calling it a day for me now. I really appreciate your help Chris and will work on it more tomorrow. Thank’s Jim.
You need to copy just the the middle of the link that starts with https and ends with .jpg.
There are two strings that start with https, but you need the one ending in .jpg and then add the tags.
You’ll see what I’m talking about, if you look at your review on CPF that you linked. You can go back and edit them.
Once you get the hang of what to look for, it’s easy as spit, but Flickr doesn’t make it easy.
I posted your picture with the middle part of your link, here, using the picture icon and it works. Over there, you just want to add the [img] tags and be done with it.
Maybe you could post your review (including photos) here on BLF then go over to CPF and say hey there is a good review with pictures over at BLF …… And while you are there tell em how good of a forum it is here !!!
