How come i cant copy and paste pictures from flickr?

Question

yea duh... but everytime i do that, the image comes up just a clear box on my page i pasted it on... and it only does this with images from flickr.com

Answer 1

You can copy/paste some, not others. It all depends on the license.

For example, you can copy this one: http://www.flickr.com/photos/fooey/22125... but not this one: http://www.flickr.com/photos/21465576@N0...

The easiest way to know if you can copy it is if there's an "All Sizes" link just above the picture. All of those can be copied.

If a picture does not have an "All Sizes" link, when you copy/paste it, it will paste an empty picture called "spaceball.gif", which is probably what you've already experience.

Answer 2

Right click COPY THIS IMAGE.... Thot ud know that ;)
