Flikr images not showing

I have uploaded images to Flikr and set them to public.  I get the image address by going to Share and copying it. When I paste in the URL for the image into my pop-up, it does not show. I get a broken image icon.  I know I have done this before and they worked. Not sure what else to try.

... and you have followed the instructions here: Adding Flickr albums to Story Maps | ArcGIS Blog  ?

That looks like a great thing to do… adding a slide show, but I am trying to put a single image in my pop-up.

I just included a URL from the public domain of Flikr in a Popup and that seems to work:

Can you include the complete URL to see if I can reproduce the problem?

Thanks for getting back to me again. I had already left the office last night.

So, here is a URL for an image: https://www.flickr.com/photos/139596296@N05/shares/j9Jc05

Here is a URL for my map: http://arcg.is/1TxXvkT

Thanks so much for your help,

Basically the problem is that you will need the URL to the actual photo to be able to include it in a pop up (at least that is what I start to believe).

Go to the All sizes page of a single photo and right click on the "Download the Original size of this photo" and select "Copy link address" this will copy the static URL to the photo.

Which yields this:

https://c2.staticflickr.com/2/1575/24777528075_def6a5e96a_o_d.png

In your case:

https://www.flickr.com/photos/139596296@N05/shares/j9Jc05

... right click on photo and open in new tab, yield this URL:

https://www.flickr.com/photos/139596296@N05/24201243729/in/shares-j9Jc05/

In the lower right corner, click on the download link and select "View all sizes":

This will redirect to this page:

https://www.flickr.com/photos/139596296@N05/24201243729/sizes/o/

And then right click on the "Download the Original size of this photo" link and select "Copy link address".

which will give the static URL:

https://c2.staticflickr.com/2/1713/24201243729_af32f9ea6f_o_d.jpg

... but I can't believe this is the "fastest" way of doing this.

To static URL can be used in the pop-up

You are right, that's an amazing long way around. I will try it late today. Thanks for your hard effort. Will let you know.

Thank you! It didn't work just like you said, as I was on a Mac and some of the things you mentioned weren't there. But I could see the differences in the URL and fooled around until I could get there. Thanks again.
