I’ve have been posting flickr links to my photos for the 52 in 52 challenge.
Sometimes this website displays these as the shortened url and sometimes the picture itself. I cant figure out if this is a local cache issue or if there is a problem with the links or file sizes. I thought this issue was just me only viewing TP on a iphone safari browser but someone else commented on my 52 page that they couldnt see the photos. Any advice welcome
 
You need to copy and paste the BBCode over to here.

Select share - select BBCode - adjust size 1024 on longest edge, then copy and paste.

Thank you. I was just pasting the link from the flickr app (on a smart phone). Cant see the bb code so may have to try and access from a pc or browser.

It'll only show if you set you phone to display 'Desktop view' rather than 'mobile view' as the Flickr site adjusts share options for mobile use.

I think that is just using the browser. I was using the Flickr mobile app. I've got my laptop now and using the Flickr site and have found the the BB code and size settings exactly as you described and have just fixed my most recent posts. Thanks again.
 
The shortened Flickr link is if it is public, the longer one the picture is private
I regularly forget to make pictures public for the ones to share here
