I'm trying out Flickr as a replacement for Photobucket.

Look Ma, no lock!

Imgur is hard to beat. Flickr does weird things with caption and link inserts.

Nice 625. I've got one with a barrel shroud. How does yours shoot?

It shoots like a dream!

Rolan, I believe you are violating one of the Flickr® rules in those postings. Their guidelines include the following:

quote:

•Link back to Flickr when you post your Flickr content elsewhere.
Flickr makes it possible to post content hosted on Flickr to other web sites. Pages on other web sites that display content hosted on flickr.com must provide a link from each photo or video back to its page on Flickr. This provides a way to get more information about the content and the photographer.

Flickr provides a tool to make it easy to comply with this policy. Each photo page has at the lower right below the photo a "Share" icon (bent white arrow). Clicking on that brings up a panel that permits selecting both a desired size and format. For posting to a forum, select "BBCode" and pick a size. Copy the text displayed and paste it directly into the forum text. The result is your photo at the selected size, with a line under it with your Flickr name, the photo name, and that it was hosted on Flickr. Your name and the photo name are supported links and provide direct ability to access the Flickr page or person.

Flickr does not like for people to violate this rule.

I went a different route on the replacement sights for my 625 MG, and used WO/RR. It's a significant improvement over the originals.

Also I ditched the S&W finger grove N frame combat grips and replaced them with these Ahrends. Far better feeling grip IMO.
