Don't usually do this reposting stuff but for such a lovely looking piece of wood, why not!

@fiddletriks @KenSan Your posts haven't auto-embedded here... are your IG accounts private? (Also, @KenSan , fully approve of using the repost attribution usually, but in this case it's overwritten the competition URL, which kinda defeats the point of spreading the word.... :) Maybe put it top-right instead?)

You need to substitute the hyperlink URL at either end of your link for the instagram ones instead.

Also at @BKA  I've embeded mine now but it still has the repost covering the bottom corner I have however added the url in my description. Alas i don't have many followers so... :-[

Ah, that clears it up! No [ url ] tags needed, just the plain link. The [ instagram ] tags aren't needed either, although it does work if you use them. But anyway, sorry for the confusion, we'll keep an eye out for that in future. Thank you.

@fiddletriks @KenSan @sarethums All accepted! Thanks for entering.

Hi @nashfire , accepted, thanks!
For future reference, when you "load" a photo into IG ready for posting, if you tap of the icon on the bottom left of the picture, it will default to its original dimensions. (So, in this case, you wouldn't have cropped the edges.) That's assuming you've got the latest version of IG. Anyway, the url was still visible, and it got the message accross, so thanks for entering!

My entry, taken at the new US Bank Stadium for the Minnesota Vikings with me wielding my new Krom Viking Cheeseburger that I got for my birthday. Sorry I wasn't looking at the camera, I was trying to balance a lighthouse while looking at the camera, and dropped it right as the picture was taken. I hope it still counts...

I hope this ,,homemade" version of BKA sticker counts :) . My face is not that visible as I wanted but I think that it's still OK. Have a nice day guys! (http://2016_kendama_0002)
