Ok, any of you flicker account users know an easier way to post pics from that site? They don't have an easy way as far as I can see.

Here's how I got it to work:

From the flicker page where the picture is, I clicked on the drop down arrow on the "share" button above the pic, then clicked the "grab the HTML/BBC code" button. It opens a little window with a line of crap, looks like this:

<a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/12820283@N02/6743607309/" title="IMG_7000 by sloowlearner, on Flickr"><img src="http://farm8.staticflickr.com/7032/6743607309_b049bc47c8_z.jpg" width="640" height="480" alt="IMG_7000"></a>


Now, in our reply boxes, if you just post that, that is all that will show. to get the picture to show, you need to copy the actual URL for the pic, which is the bold text below:

<a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/12820283@N02/6743607309/" title="IMG_7000 by sloowlearner, on Flickr"><img src="http://farm8.staticflickr.com/7032/6743607309_b049bc47c8_z.jpg" width="640" height="480" alt="IMG_7000"></a>


Now once you've copied the URL line (which is only this: http://farm8.staticflickr.com/7032/6743607309_b049bc47c8_z.jpg) you can use our forum's reply box tool button for posting pics, which is this: http://i59.photobucket.com/albums/g304/Bear_on_a_bicycle/smilies/c6ae7967.gif

When you click that little button, you just paste into the little box that pops up, hit "OK", and your done! I hope this helps, and I'm sure there's an easier way. I don't use flicker, so I'm not that familiar with their page. I'm hoping somebody will chime in that knows the short easy way!!
