Hi guys,

I was about to post a couple of pics from last nights gig, but when I added the Flickr link, I get the message "You are not allowed to use that image extension on this board. A valid format is: http://www.domain.com/picture.gif, an invalid format is: http://www.domain.com/picture.one.gif"

Can anyone let me know when Im doing wrong, and the best way to post pics on here?

Many thanks, Mark,

Where on flickr are you grabbing the link from?
If you just go to the photostream and grab the link of the pic from that view you get the wrong format.

If you go to flickr to the photo and click "all sizes" then chose the size of photo you want to link to using the buttons above.

Then down below the pic you get a box with the url of the image and it's in the correct format for posting.

Here's a random one of my pics from Flickr as an example:

Hi Carmen, many thanks!

It was actually in a public garden in Buxton when we visited Dukesy last year. It was just standing there for ages with all these people walking past. I even had time to change the lens on the camera to get the shot, but pretty soon after someones dog ran at it and of course it few away.
