Cat and Bun

Cat and Bun II

Apparently I don't get the linking flickr photos thing. Oh well.

Grar. I will try again in a moment!

Sad, I don't understand the metachat flickr tutorial. Apparently I should be doing my actual job instead of screwing around on the internet. ):
posted by serazin 09 July | 14:34
serazin, I can see the picture if I remove the "/sizes/l" at the end of the URL. Hope that helps you! If nothing else, people can get to the pictures by clicking on your link and then deleting the "sizes/l" from the address bar!

Also love how they are so curious about each other!

It worked, though!!

But how the heck do I make the photo appear in the comment?
posted by serazin 09 July | 15:02
Flickr has changed their stupid interface so our tutorial is no longer any good. Here is how you get a flickr pic into a comment now.
1. Go to the photo page.
2. Click on the Share This button above the photo.
3. Go to Grab the HTML
4. Copy the HTML in the window.
5. Paste it here at metachat.
5. The very end of the HTML will look like this: alt="my house 3">
6. Put a space and then a slash after the last quotation mark, as so: alt="my house 3" />
Now your picture will show up in the comments!

Go to "all sizes"

Choose the appropriate size and copy the embed code, then paste here

PS under the HTML there's a place where you can select the size. Photo Friday usually uses medium; the gnomes I just posted are sized at small.

desjardins that's the old way. It only works if you haven't enabled the new flickr interface yet.
posted by mygothlaundry 09 July | 15:12
Yeah now I see that. Anyway at least my photo was on topic ;)
posted by desjardins 09 July | 15:13
Good point! I have to get a picture of those gnomes when they come awake at night and stalk the cat. ;-)

I need to get pictures/video of Winston Dog and Ania Cat up here. There will be no snorgling. He likes to try to pick her up by the neck and she likes to swipe at his nose with her claws.

Dog noses bleed forever. We keep styptic powder on hand just in case (our dogs have learned their lesson, though).
posted by desjardins 09 July | 18:11
Unfortunately (?), the cat hasn't really nailed him yet. She's just as guilty as he is though; she will hide on a chair and then swipe at him when he walks by. I think the both see it as a game.

Our dog stalked the pet hamster on his last visit to the vet.
He stares at it for ten minutes, apparently willing it into submission. Without warning, he suddenly leaps up and swipes the side of its cage. Not sure if he is trying to repeat his success with the cat crate in the back room (where apparently, he managed to flip up the feeding bowls with both paws and obtain a shower of cat food - which he ate), or whether he sees the hamster itself as food.
But hamster is totally unfazed. Just scurries back to its feeding bowl and gorges some more. So at least I don't have hamster on my conscience.

You can also just copy the image URL and insert it using the 'image' button below. So if using Firefox, you would go, in Flickr, to 'all sizes' the right click on the picture, copy image location and then use the image button in MeCha to add it here.
