Hey guys,
I am trying to debug the Red X problem that we see frequently with hotlinking Flickr images. Since I have a "Pro" account on Flickr, I'm trying to avail of the VIP customer service that comes with it.
I need some help. Can you send PM me the URLs of images that you have had issues with? The CS guy would like to see some examples to find out if there are any patterns of why this is happening.
@RobAmy my, @DavidWatts, @realairlight, @Lester Wareham, any others, please send me some info so that we can get to the bottom of this. If it is not on the Flickr end, then it has to be on the forum end and I would like to systematically debug this problem. Please also send me anything that improved matters - I know that sometimes, it fixes itself after a while and sometimes, you may have had to go to a smaller pixel size image to get it to work. I don't know if any of this is just random happenstance or whether there is a pattern.
Thanks, guys!
