You've gone to Flickr
Clicked on "Share"
Chosen the BBCode option
Copied the code?

Then you [b]don't[/b] need the IMG tag just paste the code

The image will re-size for viewing the forum, but best to pick a smaller one to conserve bandwidth (especially for mobile users)

No, no. no. If you only paste the URL, you'll need the IMG tag

Have you tried doing as I suggested above?

No - the BBCode version (there's a wee checkbox under the code and size drop-down)

The code looks like this
[ url= http://www.flickr.com/photos/druidh2000/6433647403/ ][img]h

... and so on

Very nice bike by the way! If you use google chrome you can right click on the photo and copy image url. Click the IMG button on STW, paste.

The way I do it is to select your image, click the actions drop down box and select all sizes. Then choose large and right click the image. Then choose copy image URL and paste into STW. This way no one sees your Flickr user name.
