And a very fine thought it was too Just a pity I didn't see until I came back here all triumphant cos I'd suddenly had a moment
Anyway, have uploaded some pics now!!!!!
Thanks everyone for your help! And I feel a bit naughty too.....

I don't know how they check but i presume they can see how much bandwidth they are using and where images are being linked from and they probably do random checks just to make sure - anyway my paranoia and honest nature do not allow me to link without linking back
My other post looks really messy now, i will go back and tidy it up so that it's just the image and the instructions in brief - it really is very easy to do. I hope they consider providing the code in future as i would think that there are probably a LOT of people who just grab the image code and not the url code and they could make it a lot easier by providing the code like photobucket et al do! _________________

I hadn't realised that, about having to link back to the main photo page. But thank you so much Franney - excellent clear instructions. I've just successfully posted my first pic from Flickr, meeting all their legal requirements
Mods, any chance we can make this thread a sticky? Pretty please? I KNOW I'll need to refer to it time and time again  _________________

Thanks from me too....I've been doing both Photobucket and Flickr and getting cheesed off storing everything all over the show. It makes perfect sense on Ravelry now about the one line thing as I tried to post a picture on a forum there but it wouldn't show up despite trying my hardest. All because of one little detail, insert big sigh here

No worries FC, i'm glad the instructions were easy to follow, i can get a bit wordy sometimes and it just confuses the matter  _________________

I feel awful for telling everyone how to do it incorrectly. I knew I shouldn't be giving out technical advice  _________________

Don't be daft Joy, you were doing the picture link thing right, it's just that i am a bit anal when it comes to copyright and T&C's an all that... goodness only knows why though
I kind of agree with you Blossom, they are our pictures so why should we have to link to them... but on the other hand Flickr! are providing us with a free place to host them so the least we can do is provide some traffic back to them... i can see both sides really
And i feel i should know that character but it's escaping me!
