Posting Images to the Forum via Flickr

Does anyone know how to post images here from Flickr?

I understand how to use the [Img] tags, but I'm experiencing problems linking to images in my Flickr album. What am I doing wrong? :cry:

Above your photo in flickr, you will see "Share" and you are given various options, select the HTML/BB code - I think you want the BB code, copy and paste into your message.

Just had a little play and it seems to work :thinks:

Looks good Deb. Told you someone would know how to do it. Now I am really looking forward to your doing this long stitch piece. It is really going to be lovely.

Noooooooo! That's not mine, Squirrel. That's a picture of what a project I want to try ought to look like when finished. (Mine will look nothing like that!)

I was just learning how to post pictures to the board, thanks to mags and rcperryls. That picture was all I had in my album.

Sorry to mislead.
