    Upload from Flickr problem??

    I've just been making one of my rare attempts to upload an image to the forum but have come across a strange problem with Flickr. I open Flickr, select the image and click on the share icon. This takes me to the screen with share, embed, email, BB Code links, but there is only a highlighted web link in the text field. If I click on BB Code, the screen becomes greyed out with nothing on screen. I have checked all my settings, security etc. and the Flickr FAQs to no avail.

    Can anyone please offer any thoughts??

      Yes me too. In fact just upload two shots without a hitch. Could it be browser related?

        Thanks for the replies, chaps!!
        Seems to be fixed now. It would appear that the shortcut on my desktop was the culprit, but it worked perfectly well until the latest automatic update to Windows 10. Isn't that odd??

          Windows 10 is causing a few glitches with running some applications.

            Just testing as it seems not only does Windows 10 not allow copying of flickr images on Edge, but it now seems the un supported |Explorer isn't working either.

                I always use flickr to post images on the forum. The transferred images are good but the flickr images are always much better. So very often members take a look at my original flickr images before they comment.

                  It's a software problem Nat, Windows 10 doesn't allow you to copy and Explorer is no longer updated and supported by Microsoft, so it may well be that I won't be able to post images soon. The bbc code appears on explorer, but the save option is no longer there, I have to right click and copy it.

                    I use Firefox or Google Chrome as my browser- depends on what I am doing. I use firefox more often. Seems to work OK. This is one of the main reasons I am hesitating about upgrading my Windows Vista to Windows 10.
