"Facebook" sending pics

Any Facebook addicts out there? Ive downloaded pics to my facebook site, and at the bottom it says "Share thes photos by sending this link", so i cut and paste this link and send it, but this link will not "Underline" and wont click up.. any idea what im doing wrong ? Ta

Where are you pasting the link into? E-mail or into a forum like this?

You have to click the "share this..." link then it asks you for the person's e-mail you'd like to share with, they are then sent an invitation to view. However this only works if your privacy settings are off the max (if they aren't already a friend on facebook).

PS you can also copy the album link: (view the album and look at the address in the browser address bar) e.g. something like: http://www.facebook.com/home.php#/album.php?aid=xxxxx&id=xxxxxxxxx

But again people who aren't on Facebook can't see this, they have to be a PB member, and if your security settings are high (and they should be) they can only see them if they are a friend, or if looser, a friend of a friend.

The e-mail must be composed in Rich text (HTML) not Plain text, so simply change the format.

It was in
"Rich Text," still wont work!, also tried sending via Hotmail, still no go! Strange . I can open links sent to me, but I cant send links.When i paste the links, they just stay "Black", they should of course turn "Blue"

Put the email in HTML format, although it really shouldn't make any difference. Links even activate in plain text via Outlook as I use this a lot with no problem at all, but it does depend on receivers security settings if links are blocked.

Get your friends to copy and paste the link into a browser (from the e-mail), rather than just try to click it in the e-mail. Should make no difference at all that it's "blue", with an underlying hyperlink, just as long as it's the correct http link with no spaces.

Else why not just send the link via Facebook to them as I described in post #3...
