With a little help from my friends


I'm trying to get the URL for my picture (PNG file) from photobucket.com. I mean, I have uploaded it to that filesharing site, and now I can see it their page, but impossible to get the link. The link (URL) is at the right side of the picture, and you are supposed to click on it and then it gets copied in the copy/paste buffer. However I can't get it into the buffer. Could that be that I need a newer web browser version? I tried with Firefox and Seamonkey.

With firefox try right clicking on the image - and select 'view image' that should take you directly to the image, and a direct URL.

Do you have javascript disabled? Photobuckets "links" are javascripts that copies the link, so if you have javascript blocked they don't work.

Thank you. Yes, that gave me the link. But I lack the tags inclosing it. One is URL and the other is IMG. How do I place them, if you are so kind?

I'm not sure that depends on the site you are tagging.

How do I enable it? I should type 'about.', isn't it? But what afterwards?
