Jeff has offered to show me how to reduce the click intensive process of posting images from Flicker to two clicks.

Here is what I do, which I find somewhat laborious.

Firstly I have to navigate to Flicker, I usually land on the Photostream page, there are no images there so I have to switch to the Camera Roll page where the images are visible.


Image 1

When I arrive at the camera roll page, I find all the images are in a jumbled order but I am unable to sort them by date/time as I would wish. The filenames are not available either so I can't always identify specific similar images, say good and bad examples of the same image.

Then I select the image I need, click on the top right arrow pointing both ways??? and hope...

Then I land here, and choose to go to the Photo page (which was what I had expected from the previous click?):


Image 3

I select the curly arrow to the right:


Image 4

Finally I get to copy the image url.


Image 5

Which I then paste into the forum post such as this.

Frankly I find it tedious to say the least.

Posting a single image isn't too bad but for a single image I don't bother with Flicker, I simply use the forum software. To populate a post such as this where I want the images in the correct order, I find it quite difficult because the file names are not visible until I have actually pasted the image on the forum text edit box.
