another Flickr question (didn't wanna hijack the other thread)

[katia]

in another thread, someone had asked if there was a quick and easy way to batch-download all their uploaded flickr content, and someone posted a cool program called FlickrDown.

NOW what i'm wondering is, is there a quick and easy program that allows you to select certain photos, and generate HTML/IMG tags for use on message boards, emails, etc? some of you that use photobucket may be familiar with this.

Katia, if you're using Firefox, I highly recommend using Greasemonkey and AllSizes+. What this combination will do is when you click the "All Sizes" button on Flickr, it will (on the same page) drop down a box with the html / bbcode for you and all you have to do is copy and paste. I'd recommend this a million times over for anyone posting pictures from Flickr. It just makes life a lot easier!

Just testing.





Confirmed. Saves a few clicks. Thanks for that Nicole! Makes it easier to download a pic also. Very cool!

[Nicole]

Definitely. I use it all the time. It's a huge time saver. Happy to help save you some time Dave

wow, thanks a lot nicole, very cool app! however that's not exactly what i'm looking for. on photobucket you can use a little checkmark to select as many thumbnails as you want, and then generate all the HTML/BB tags for those photos at once, which saves time both with copy & pasting, but also with switching between flickr, and wherever i'm posting the photo. basically i don't want to have to go to each individual photo in my photostream and click "all sizes" to get the code.

anything like this?

Not for on other sites. I know there's a greasemonkey script that lets you do something similar if you're posting just on Flickr, but not that I know of for posting to other sites.
