Trouble posting pics from Picasa

Post Reply New Topic

I tried to post a pic from Picasa and when I hit preveiw, it didn't show up. Just the link w/ the image tags. I did it the same way I did w/ Facebook pics, right clicked, and copied the image url and pasted it in the add image window.

What I need to know is this cuz Picasa doesn't allow the pics to show up or do I need to do something different?

Please make a test post including an image to this thread so it can be examined.
Some image hosting sites do "weird things" with their image links and what seems obvious doesn't always work...

Edit: actually, I just found this:
http://support.google.com/picasa/bin/an ... swer=44571
(obviously the "Paste the URL" part should be done between [img]...[/img] tags)

Any help?

Can u remove this when u are done with it?

Tadaaa...

It's because the image URL starts with https
I think the image display code in the forum software is slightly broken and it doesn't like it but in all the cases I've seen so far, tweaking it to be just http works - and that's all I did with your image link.

(once you've posted again here I'll remove the image for you)

Woohoo thanks.

No problemo!
