New stickers on the scoot and helmet...

I shied away from putting stickers on the scooter and my helmet for the longest time, but lately I found a bunch of Bebop, Venture Bros, and Simpsons stickers that I couldn't say no to....

Still have a Monarch emblem and a Zoidberg head silhouette that needs a home, but figured adding four stickers in one night was enough.

I do not think your pictures are showing up, but I am a big fan of the Venture Brothers and was wondering where you got the stickers at. I would love to have the Monarch emblem on my scoot!

Huh, wonder what happened. I'll check on it. I'm still really shaky when it comes to posting images online and MB.

The stickers were from Red Bubble and they turned out pretty good.

May add the Monarch later this week to the windshield.

Thanks!

Check Flickr and make sure you've got those pictures (or their set) marked as Public. To test, copy the photo URL to your clipboard, log all the way out of Flickr, then paste the URL and see if you can display the picture.

I can see the photos if I click through to Flickr, so that means they're probably public. I suspect your links are wonky.

The easiest/most reliable method to show Flickr photos in MB is to go to the photo's page, click the 'Share' button, choose 'Grab the HTML/BBCode', choose a size, click the BBCode radio button, then click on the code fragment and Ctrl-C to copy it (the stuff that starts with [url=... ) Then in MB, paste it in your post. THis works pretty well, and you can edit out the extra text hyperllink at the end if you just want the photos.

They posted the first time and I did change them to private thinking it'd disrupt folks looking at the Atlanta pictures.

I'll tweak it again with your suggestions. Thanks for the info.

//Yay! Wonky links!

Cool Bebop stickers...very cool! 14 years later that is still one of my favorite animes. The red sticker of the swordfish looks awesome on the rear mud flap.
