Hi Sven

No problem :) just a question.

I pull images in from Flickr and I'm wondering about whether these images sit in my Pixtures database ie they are copied there or if they are simply links to the original images sitting on Flickr and pulled in on demand. Can you advise please? I'm interested in this because of image copyright issues. 

Best

Hi Sven, can you give me some insight please as to how Event Gallery locally stores the images from Flickr.

Regards

Dave

Hi, 

In the database of your website, only references to those images are stored. The frontend creates links to those images on the Flickr servers. This is the same process as with Google Photos.

Thanks Sven, I thought that was the case but I thought it better to ask.
Take careDave
