Topic: Posting pictures here....

OK, I'm officially in the Twilight Zone.  I posted a picture (from my Kodak file) in washing cats post above, and the picture was there at first and later disappeared.

A few minutes ago, I posted the picture inside the message, trying to figure out what was wrong, and now BOTH pictures are there.  At least they were awhile ago.  If I go back and look again, they'll probably both be gone.

Can anyone figure out what has been going on with my pictures?  Really weird. 

Kentucky, is this your cat?  I found it in my 'shutterfly' bucket?  ;>)

I've tried uploading from the Kodak site and it never works.  I use photobucket and it works well.

I think you're right, I'm beginning to believe it's Kodak. So, I'm going to Photobucket. Thanks....KY

My guess is you can't hotlink to the kodak website. If I look at the properties of the box where your photo should be I can get the address of the photo. I can paste that address into my browser address bar and see the picture. Once I back out and come back to your original post I can see the picture because now it is cached in memory.

I did that (told DebS to do it below). But, the pic only stays there a little while and then disappears! ....KY

Kentucky, I believe it is the way you coded your picture. It should be like this:


{img src=http://images.kodakgallery.com/photos5106/4/46/1/49/83/9/983490146406_0_ALB.jpg}


Substitute < for { and > for }


You had some extraneous stuff in there which confuses the computer and internet.


See your charming photo here:

All I see is a red x. ~i&b

Sandra, this has been the problem all along. The pic would be there for awhile and then disappear...That's why I said I feel like I'm in the Twilight Zone! LOL.....KY

Come inside, please, Kentucky.

I still can't see either photo you posted.

The only thing I can think of is to try downloading to shutterfly, flicker or photobucket. Then copy/paste again. Maybe that will work.

I use shutterfly and I have never had a problem.

This is soooooooooooooo strange. I checked again and it was gone. Try this, if you have time. (I did and it worked, for AWHILE)......go to the picture...if it is blank, right click on the blank and copy the properties URL (Kodak), paste it into your web address line and enter. It will (should!) show you the picture. And then when you go back to the post, the pictures will be there (at least it did for me, and then disappeared again!) Really weird! .I wish someone could tell me why this is happening ...KY

Ah ha!! It did work!!! Pumpkin is beautiful! Love those big green eyes!! What a sweetie :-)...........DebS

Thanks! I was beginning to think she was putting a hex on my computer for calling her a ''she-devil''. KY
