All I have at present is an iPad so there's not much I can do. | ||

Or maybe it has something to do with the privacy settings on the flickr account? Flickr photos are often blocked from downloading and/or linking. | ||

(At least that's how it worked with the challenges I created.) | ||

I would prefer that Dave upload the image to WWE so that I can delete it from Flickr.

You should be able to link to any offsite image as long as it's a full URL. The star field image there now is hosted offsite on NASA so it's obviously working. It must be that your image hosting service is blocking the offsite link. When I see a new RYO go up I'll go grab the image and post it locally and change the image link. That way the pic will load faster and I know it won't go missing or get accidentally deleted. Plus, our site is secure so an offsite image will sometimes throw a security warning, depending on browser and browser settings etc, up at the user which can be confusing. Originally they're all hosted offsite unless it's one that I've made for the challenge host. | ||

Regular Posts: 54 | I've created two new challenges--a Sub-Genre Focus challenge and a Detective SFF Challenge--but don't have the time and creative energy to make banners for either challenge right now. If anyone else is interested in doing so, that would be much appreciated! Otherwise, I'll get to it when I can get to it. :-) | ||

Extreme Veteran Posts: 555 Location: Great Lakes, USA | Thanks for fixing the banner for the 2015 Space Opera Challenge! I seem to only be able to add pictures from the Astronomy Picture of the Day site. Anything else doesn't show. Can you put last years banner up for the Read the Sequel Challenge? I liked that one. Thanks! | ||

Thanks! No problem on the banner and a great challenge. Love me some space opera! The issue with the images is that they sometimes don't show unless they're on a secure site to match ours. I usually download them and put them on our site and update the link when I see 'em. The sequel banner is back up too. Cheers! | ||

I hope you like it. Cheers. | ||

Regular Posts: 54 | Those are fantastic! I love the pulp-inspired look of the Detective banner, and the Sub-Genre Focus banner is both elegant and clever. Thank you so much! | ||

Uber User Posts: 370 Location: Beaverton, Oregon, USA | Hi Dave, Can you update the 2014 I Just HAVE to Read More of That Author banner for 2015? Also, I'm going to host a Tolkien challenge, as I've wanted to reread LOTR and explore some of the posthumous work edited by his son. And I'm betting there are at least a few folks like me who've never read more that The Hobbit and the trilogy but have always been interested in what Christopher Tolkien has gathered. So if you have any ideas for a banner and have the time to put one together, I'd appreciate it. Perhaps the pic from the cover of the Humphrey Carpenter biography? Thanks in advance! | ||
