Thanks for the check Dave. Not sure how to recip, but I will try.
Dave, I clicked on the pic of the black hog above and was able to look at several pics. Other hog pics, some bullets and your supper. But not others if you have them.

Thank you, David! I uploaded all my pics as private, but obviously they are not. If anyone knows how to edit that preference, please advise.
David, clicked on your picture and got this, so you're good:
Quote:This photo is private.
Oops! You don't have permission to view this photo.
Here's a link back to your home page.

I thought I had uploaded all pictures as private, but apparently missed some. Here's a link as to how to change that so clicking on a posted pic does not give you access to complete album or account:
https://www.flickr.com/help/forum/72157650154357498/?search=change+album+to+private
I followed instructions on all the pictures I had uploaded and apparently it works, but have only checked one photo of mine.
I have reverted back to using the slower cut/paste properties and posting on PM using the "enter image" button above message box as this eliminates your name/flickr ling beside the picture. Still gives you choice of size of picture.

Thanks DoubleCK. Apparently my Image Shack photos are not private. I have since tried to set the privacy boundaries. If you don't mind, try the photos again.
Thanks to Bob Alt, I have the FLIKR figured out now and can take off the photo number and my name. As well, it cannot be opened up to my FLIKR account.
The way I am doing it is: Once the photo is opened up in FLIKR, go to the right-curved arrow and you will get a box for the size and the URL. Copy and paste the URL into Predator Masters, then remove all the URL on the outside of the brackets
Can anyone answer this?

i dont know that answer. but i can tell you i have been on pb several times just recently and my pictures seem to still be here (on this board).
i am also still able to get the code off pb and post pictures here even right now.
why some guys are gone and others are not is a mystery. maybe it is just taking longer for them to get to some of us.

Sometimes the simplest answer is best,
like a few hard drives in their server farm system died and they can't/won't restore them.
then the next question would be, when will the one holding my pics die ??

This is probably the long way around, but here's how I have found that posts pictures w/o my acct name/that cannot be opened into my acct (if that makes sense).
Open a dialog box in which you wish to post your picture. Then proceed to Flickr and:
1) Choose picture to be posted and left click on it.
2) LClick on arrow pointing down @ lower right hand corner of black screen
3) Choose
4) Pick desired size
5) W/cursor over picture, Right Click
6) Click
7) Copy properties in menu
8) Open your PM dialog box and Click button above dialog box (4th button from left)
9) Choose type of image desired, ie.
10) Paste your picture's properties
11) click
A little longer than choosing the UBB but avoids having to clean up the Ubb to keep your info private IMO.

hm

HM, your method seems to be better than having to clean up the URL of each photo.
Speaking of why some guys photos in Photobucket are not available and others are, that is indeed a mystery. My Photobucket account says I have used only 17% of my allotted space, but for some reason they either think I have used too much, or maybe it was just a random thing. Who knows.

Actually HM, if you include the (careful) edit time on UBB, I think this is quicker and (more importantly) less error prone.
Thats why I like your method ....

That was my conclusion after trying the UBB/cleanup method. I seemed to screw it up and break the link too often with the UBB method.
Well, David, that blows my theory as to PB's methodology in blocking our pictures. I figured it had to do with useage. I think you and I were dumped about the same time and my useage of allotted space was 62%. I figured they were trying to 1) increase their bottom line or 2) save bandwidth since their system was (not so) slowly grinding to a halt in recent months and I have been bombarded w/emails wanting me to upgrade.
FWIW (maybe PB is listening) why would anyone jump on the band wagon and upgrade a system that was performing so pitifully? Perhaps if they would give everyone a free (30 day) trial run of the upgraded service (and consider a more reasonable rate), they would get more takers. Just sayin'. On the other hand, they have burned their bridges with me; absolutely no way will I do business with any company which uses blackmail as a business SOP, but that's just me.

It is slower, but you have the benefit of dumping those that you no longer need. I still had a few that distorted but not NEAR the 30% or so that were distorted when downloading complete albums.

Got the email yesterday and my pics are gone so no flying under the radar, just took a little longer.
For those of you down loading pics from PB how did you get them to PB in the first place? Mine were either on my PC or my phone depending on how I uploaded to PB. Just curios the need to download them back again?
