    Bass Pic Troubles with Google Photos

    I've switched to Flickr, so the photo in the Basses thread might show now. Google makes you go through so many hoops to get a URL. Then you have to add a suffix, and doing that makes the pic show sometimes, sometimes not.

    Whom are you using as a photo host?

    It only happens when I try to post a google photo to posts on this and other fora.

    Re: Bass Pic Troubles with Google Photos

    I posted in this thread how I post photos from Flickr. Since then, Flickr was acquired by SmugMug, with whom I have an account, so I've deleted all but about 30 photos from Flickr (nearly 3,000 - Flickr is allowing free accounts a maximum of 1,000), which is why there is no photo in my post. Still, the information still applies.

    No problems with Flickr. The picture is showing now.

    Yeah, except they are pimping me by threatening to delete some of my pics unless I pay them. Bastas!

    I deleted almost 4,000 photos I had in Flickr (I had an auto-uploader program that sent EVERY photo). This has given me an opportunity to curate my photos there, and now I'm at about 120. Making lemonade out of lemons.

    I say this with some satisfaction because I have a paid account on SmugMug, which now owns Flickr.
