I followed Dr. Harout's instructions to the tee. I downloaded Firefox, went to my site, opened the image, right clicked, selected "copy image location", and then pasted it between the image brackets from the tool bar.

This really sucks. Did you ever wonder why these things only happen to you?

How do I get the direct linking URL?
To get the direct linking URL for an image, view the image and add .jpg or size.jpg to the end of the URL.

This works just like linking to an image page but append .jpg to the end of the URL.
example: http://www.pbase.com/image/image" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false; number.jpg
example: http://www.pbase.com/image/image" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false; number/size.jpg

Note: to direct link to a .gif, use the .jpg extension also. It will still send the gif file.

You can also easily get the direct linking URL by viewing the edit image page and looking in the top right corner of the page, where the URL for linking to the medium size of the image is given.

Who can direct link?
Paying PBase customers can direct link to their own public images as long as they have direct linking enabled on the image's parent gallery. If you try to direct link to images that are non-public or password-protected, it will fail.

How can I disable/enable direct linking on my account?
You can enable or disable direct linking for your whole account at the update account page.
You can enable or disable direct linking for a specific gallery in the advanced view of the edit gallery page.
If you disable direct linking, images that have already been linked to will still show up for a little while before they are updated. All other images are blocked from direct linking immediately.
