Can't add media from another website

  1. In my post, I'm trying to add media from another website (a photo from another site). This is the link: http://www.flickr.com/photos/66606673@N00/6370244221/

    I want to embed the photo in the post.

    I keep getting a red X next to the URL, so it's not being accepted.

    What do I need to do to get the photo in there?

    Thanks,

    Dave

    The blog I need help with is allthingsattainable.com.

  2. Make sure you are using the actual image's URL (the one that ends in JPG) rather than the Flickr URL that ends with a series of numbers. From the Flickr image link itself, go to Actions > View all sizes, then select the size, and then click (or right click) on the Download link right above.

  3. Under Sharing they will also give you the direct embed code IF that person has enabled it. Put it in the HTML editor.

  4. You could also save the image and upload it yourself. I would give create for it though.
