I need help posting my halloween costume and sign picture

I've tried to follow the directions and uploaded it to flickr but all I can get is a url, not the actual picture. I went as Big Bird with a sign that read If Mitt loves Big Bird so much, why does he want to kill him ???

Please help this luddite.

Try posting the URL. Ptah Oct 2012 #2

I did, and it just blue tagged the URL, rather than showing the picture tavalon Oct 2012 #4

No, I put it in the title line so you could see how it is different than the URL you posted. Ptah Oct 2012 #10

So the "6" gets replaced with "jpeg"? tavalon Oct 2012 #11

I clicked on your original link, then copied from the text to the left of your picture. Ptah Oct 2012 #13

Sorry to be so obtuse, but in all my years at DU, I've never posted a picture.

does it give you a URL that ends with the file name of your picture? Maybe if you upload to www.tinypic.com it would be easier?
