My watchtower.  Had to remove the pic, as it was too large. Click the Link for pictures.

Please resize your image to 600x800 as per the site guidelines.
Once you have resized it, I'll add it to the index for the tower challenge.

I tried, but I could not resize the pic; so I removed it. I hope this does not disqualify me.

If you host your images at Flickr, you don't need to resize them before you upload as you are given a choice of what size you'd like to share them at...if that makes sense.
Check out the tutorial thread in my sig

I've seen your Flickr pics, you have no trouble attracting ladies mate  

Seriously upload your pic to Flickr, rt click on the picture and it will give you size options, then choose 800x640 or smaller. This will open a new page, rt click and copy image location (firefox) or view image info, and copy the link. Paste it over here and done!

You're new, so I think we need to take a little pitty on you!

Give us a link to the Flickr page and maybe we can figure out what is going wrong for you.  My guess is you are trying to link to the webpage and not the image.

Okay I'm guessing Flickr is telling you to copy a code like this:

<a href="http://www.flickr.co...04/6513092009/" title="Tower 2 by JerseyTom86, on Flickr"><img src="http://farm8.staticf...7ec3082294.jpg" width="333" height="500" alt="Tower 2"></a>

You only need to put the image source part (in bold) of the code in your post, so extract and use the equivalent of this line:

http://farm8.staticf..._7ec3082294.jpg

I try to post a pic or link but all I get is a message saying " You are not allowed to use that image extension on this board." What do I do?!

Once again, give us a link to your flickr page.  my guess is you are not pasting in the image link, but some extra webcode that is not needed.

This is the link to my photostream. Link I hope this is what you are looking for.

That link appears to be a mobile version.  Also, you are not searchable on flickr, are the photos set to private?

Anyhow... I think I sorted that out...

Here is the tower...



When you select the properly sized image on flick, right click it and select "copy image location" and paste that into the box that comes up when you press this button here on Eurobricks.

Thank you!!
I am on my phone right now (I use my phone to take pics, as I don't have a camera), so that might explain all this.
I don't THINK my account is set to private, but I will check. (Just FYI I am legoman 273 on Flikr)
