Snowlynx and Rowanberry what a fantastic job you have done with a photo gallery. I have only just found it! Suggest you have the link stuck to main page, so it can be seen by members. For members who don't know what I am talking about try this - www.flickr.com/photos/133782128@N02/albums .

Being something of a Luddite where social media is concerned I have no idea how to post to this gallery. I see a couple of my photos there: do I just post to the forum and the photos miraculously appear in the Flickr gallery? Jeff Hodgson

I see a couple of my photos there: do I just post to the forum and the photos miraculously appear in the Flickr gallery? Jeff Hodgson As things stand, you are right, the photos miraculously appear on the Wabi Flickr gallery. Well... not such a miracle actually, I have written a semi automatic script to transfer your attachments across. This is not quite as originally intended! We had supposed that we could create a user login with restricted permissions on Flickr so that Wabi members could upload their own images to the gallery... but it turns out you can't do that on Flickr! (So... if you think you are a bit of a social media Luddite then join the club!!) It seems that what we should have done was to create a Flickr 'Group', as that is what they are designed for and have limited permissions by default. If we had done this, you could upload to your own Flickr account and then share them to the Group. Although, even this would not be entirely ideal, since some Wabi members indicated that they did not want to have to create their own Flickr account and wished only to upload Wabi image attachments.

Yes, it's a bit of a shame that WABI members can't post to the Flickr Gallery directly, but this was the only option we could find that allowed everyone to still keeping posting image attachments without filling up our storage allowance of photos here on the forum.
Snowlynx has worked very hard to come up with this idea... along with designing the program to move them across for safe-keeping. There are some incredible photos there! It's great seeing them all together.

Thank you both. Yes it is a welcome development: I’m one of those who wouldn’t want a Flickr account of my own so it does the job well
