Salutations, good StackExchange editors. Over the past few weeks, users (including me) helped to replace Flickr links with Imgur links in Slytherincess's questions, as requested here. The campaign was successful, and the search query made by Alex for her Flickr-using posts now returns nothing.
Now, however, there are still about:
- 15 posts from other users using Flickr for images in them;
- 41 posts using images from Blogspot;
- 177 Wikia "vignettes";
- 120 Imgur (but non-Stack Imgur) images. (lesser priority)
Please help improve the site by replacing these with i.stack.imgur.com links! Much more importantly, please add image descriptions to make the web a better place for people with disabilities.
Here's a quick guide as to how to get images from Flickr in Stack's Imgur:
Go to the post. Go into editing, and find a link to a URL that looks approximately like
http://www.flickr.com/photos/slytherincess/7089921451/
.Copy the link and put it in a new tab.
On Firefox: Press ⌘+U on Mac or CTRL+U
On Chrome: Right click, choose "View Page Source."
Go to line 107 in the source code. Copy the URL in the quotes.
Go to SE, make a new dummy question. Insert an image, pasting in the URl.
Copy the i.stack.imgur.com link it makes from the bottom of the page, then paste it into the question or answer that used Flickr to replace the link, and you've got one question fixed, preserved for the future web.
With direct links to image files, just paste them into the photo uploader and copy-paste the link.
