I don't use flickr, but on photobucket.com if you move your cursor over the picture you want to post, a series of boxes will come up under the picture which are links you can use. On photobucket I use the "direct" link which begins with "http". I copy that link, bring it to the forum and paste it into box for posting your thread. Once it is pasted, I highlight the link, the click on the "Img" button listed above the post box (if that was done right then the link will begin with [img] and end with the same thing). Then, if everything has been done right, when you click on "submit" you post with picture should show up.

If anyone out there knows about flickr, you might give her some help.

for flickr...
pull up your picture
look in the upper right corner for "share this"
click "share this" then "grab the HTML" and copy it
go to your posting box
paste in the HTML you copied
check if it is there with preview
if OK then submit

if using the large flickr picture, the box under the pic "copy and paste" is what you use

I am only a learner here but that is how I do it...
good luck...will be looking forward to your pics
