    2,575 but only because I called it The Lord of.....and someone picked it up and put it on their blog. Have a look for a programme called "Flickr Inspector" It will let you check to see if anyone is using your pics on their blog. It does a lot more as well. Here's the most viewed anyway:

    But as stated above don't use groups , not sure of its purpose ?

    goto groups, browse, find some public groups that match the theme of some of your photos. then join them

    then goto organise your pictures, and drag the pictures that are relevant onto the groups. that adds the pictures to the groups. be sure to follow the rules (some state a max of x pix per day).

    that will give you more exposure for sure.

    hope that helps

    My most popular with a 'whopping' 126 views. I think it's just because it's one of the only ones I bothered putting into those groups where you have to post one and rate or comment on the 3 before you. It probably is one of my favourite pictures though.

    How do you make it so the picture comes up here, but links back to the flickr page it's from? The link in the 'all sizes' page on flickr doesn't seem to work...

    due to the custom tags on boards for images the default flickr code wont work

    1). Goto your flickr photo, click different sizes, and copy the contents of the second box into the clipboard
    2). Head back to your boards post, click the little Insert Image button on the repy to post screen (little yellow icon under Undo), paste in there
    3). wrap that in a link to the image page on flickr using the link icon, and the URL to your flicks page
    4). press Preview Post to be sure

    that should be you all set.

    had to figure this out myself the hard way earlier, so hope this helps !


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,713 ✭✭✭DaireQuinlan


    Ahhh... neato, it works.

    This is actually my 3RD most viewed picture. My first one is that cursed kitten, my second one a boring straight up shot of the burton building in dame street for the Burtons Deco group (Burtons buildings are all over the place apparently, they're still missing pictures of the ones in belfast and cork if anyone is interested)

    I was in oz a while back and we went to a salt lake just south of coober pedy. For some reason I had an umbrella with me. One swift tripod setup later and a bit of ad-hoc compositioning and ... voila :

    One in Waterford too, I wonder did they get that.

    *EDIT* I just joined and posted to the group Daire, I should have a pic soon.
