Hi Allisia,
You have to enable BBCode in your posts to insert pictures so that they show up (I've done so for you on the last two posts).
The picture doesn't show up, because the url does not end with .jpg or .gif, so the only possibility to show it is to create a clickable link or upload it elsewhere.

I've never tried posting pictures before today. I tried highlighting the url for a Flickr picture, and clicking the Img button, but the picture didn't show up.
Does this mean that Flickr pictures cannot be displayed automatically since the url doesn't end in those extensions?origami_8 wrote: The picture doesn't show up, because the url does not end with .jpg or .gif, so the only possibility to show it is to create a clickable link or upload it elsewhere.

nope. if you view a flickr picture in the flicks page (not fullsize) you can rightclick the picture and chose "copy link location". I don't know if that's the exact term in an english system but it should be something like that (like "copy picture location").
by doing this you will change this
http://flickr.com/photos/83494164@N00/37065137/
into that
just remove everything after the .jpg of the picturelink.

If you want to post the pictures directly on the forum, you need to right-click "copy image location". If it's from Flickr, make sure you erase the ?v=0 at the end. The code you're using can only be linked with a URL. Anyway, it doesn't even work. It says "This is not the page you're looking for". Apparently, "It looks like you're trying to see something in garryw16's photostream".

If you right-click (control-click for us Mac people) on the picture on the photo page, the page were people can make comments, etc., and select copy link, the copied url will end with ?v=0. If you go to all sizes and get the link from one of the pictures there, it will not have that suffix. Also, if you get the link from the small photo on the Flickr page, where multiple photos are seen, it will not have ?v=0 either.
If when you paste the link you see ?v=0, delete that part.

This is what the code is, but it doesn't show properly for me when I see it in preview. I still see the example as I mentioned above.origamimasterjared wrote:[img]picture_link[/img]
Here's a live example I found:

oh I forgot to mention that you have to type an "=" after the first URL
Taking your example here is what Andrew wrote:
[url=http://www.flickr.com/photos/ahudson/3938624716/][img]http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3529/393 ... 0daa_m.jpg[/img][/url]
In short:
[url=link][img]picture link[/img][/url]

In short:
[url=link][img]picture link[/img][/url]

Since an important number of people in these forums use Flickr for storing pictures i thought I would comment on a new situation. Recently flickr added a feature by which you can tag people on pictures. This messed up with many other things that Flickr had and currently right clicking on pictures do not show you the picture path.
The work around is that you have to go to the All Sizes scetion and from there copy the path. Hopefully this will be solved some day soon.
