Until yesterday I used to be able to open my photos on Flickr to select the size I wanted. I would then copy the image location so that I could paste it into the Insert Media dialogue for posting in a thread. Now when I click on the Flickr menu and choose Download/All Sizes I get a box which only gives me a limited range of sizes. Furthermore, all I can do is download the file. I can't see how to get the link to paste into the insert media box.
Has anyone else encountered this?

This time, I used HTML code, but same thing. I'm sure it's me doing something wrong... will have another play later.... better do some work now!

My photos on Flickr
Just looked at what they've done. They seem to allow you to open all sizes now whereas you couldn't before and you were restricted to downloading only. Just testing linking a file
Yep, it works. Sounds like they listened to all the complaints.
What do you mean by the English version, Alan?
I just opened a photo, selected all sizes from the menu in the panel on the right and then right clicked on the photo to copy image location.
Have you got the black panel on the right hand side when you click on a photo from your photostream?
Oh, good. Previously, when you clicked on download/all sizes you could only download a file. Now they let you go to all sizes and not just four presets.
Good thinking. Perhaps the Mods could incorporate it into the "How To" thread. Not sure if many people read it though judging by the number of queries we still get.
I didn't like the new Flickr either so reverted to the old style and format again. I will look at Ipernity, thanks for the info.

I did it a little while back Alan so maybe they took the option off. I'll take a look ....
I'm now wondering when I had to re-sign up with Yahoo recently that they have automatically put me back on the new version ! I seem to have a Creations tab so is that only on the new Flickr. ? I was using old version as far as I know when I opted back a couple of months ago.
