I tried to load some pics from flickr, and it wouldn't allow it. Message said, I have to wait seven days

I had to wait 7 days before I could post on AMMO.

Yes, we have the same system in place on Ammo.

Anyway, welcome aboard. I know that a lot of folks here will love your collection and your diorama building and fair warning, there are some very talented kitbashers and diorama builders here too. Also, some good senses of humor.

Thanks for explaining. A wonder if it is an issue somehow specific to images from flickr. I notice you had no problem loading an avatar image. Unless it's also from flickr, try using it in a regular post as an experiment.

PS I'll be moving these posts to their proper place in the technical issues thread.

I loaded my avatar directly from my laptop. I will try again though . If no good, I will have to be patient

I encountered that message, too, but iirc it was only for external links (likely for anti-spam).

If you remove the links that flickr adds from the post and just leave the actual image, it should work.

Hmmm, I guess one can do that with an avatar photo, but maybe not with the ones included in posts. The recommended photo hosting site is servimg.com, but you ought to be able to use other ones as well. I remember there have been occasional issues with PhotoBucket in the past. I'm pretty sure other users have been able to post photos right off the bat and don't know exactly what is getting in your way. We haven't put in any restrictions ourselves, but there might be something on Forumotion level regarding flickr. Not sure. Will try to check.

Thank you, rui, maybe that will fix it. BAMComix, try this method.

I will give it a try, thanks!

Good to see you here Mate! I think the folks from Kimono Station and BAM HQ might have a few amusing chats here also.

Indeed welcome aboard, it's good to see here too. I'm always amazed with the photos of your Ammo Arms diorama and it's many details.
