jb,

Tighten up the "tags" right on the head and tail of the picture URL.

I couldn't edit your post, so I quoted it, and fixed the "tags"

What the machinery needs to see it something like this:

[img]http://%20%20ww*.picturehost.com/blahdeblah.jpg[/img]

When using the tags, remember that the plain one goes first, Image closes the operation.

All of these cool tools take some gettin' used to, but they work great.. ;)

I have some advantage, I work on three Boards doing this kind of work, and have a little bit of info that can be passed along! ;)

Something odd with Flickr's system, let me play with it a bit.

You are doing things correctly, but Flickr has got something a tad weird working.

Pic that needs posted, send it my way via PM and I can get it up.

jb,

This is gonna add just one more little step to being able to post a pic from Flickr.


Here is your original URL you wanted to post:

http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2072/191 ... f5.jpg?v=0

Carefully delete everything after .jpg

The ?v=0 is something they use for their display system.
Not necessary for showing the pic anywhere else using the tags.

Please, if you are so inclined try this, and see if it works from your end.

I appreciate your time and patience learning how to work this new Board.
