That works! (Despite photobucket saying "Clicks will [] go to the Photobucket home page"!)

Well done Miz and thanks.

Nope, no Pro, but I think I've found the problem. Go into "account options" (toward the top of the page, right hand corner), then uncheck the "Images Link Back To Album" option. :wink:

Thanks Miz - the very same option gives me a link with a different action:

"IMG for bulletin boards & forums - Clickable thumbnail" gives me the following code:

Which results in:

Ah, not seen because hidden until mouseover - fixable in "Link options".

"Link options".

Excellent - thanks. And nice to see that clicking the thumbnail link automatically copies it.

But... that link is no better than imageshack's - I want one that
delivers a thumbnail that goes direct to the full-size original, rather than to an intermediate
I get e.g.

Under the image you uploaded you will see the list of link\tag options at the bottom this is "more" or "other" - I can't recall which. Once this pop-up is opened you can change what are the default options presented below the image. One of these options is thumbnail.

I use imageshack but I edit the thumbnail link to direct image instead of default web page.

Can anyone suggest an alternative to imageshack which delivers a thumbnail that goes direct to the full-size original, rather than to an intermediate as per e.g. http://www.mediamonkey.com/forum/viewto ... 58#p186458

Thanks.
