Unfortunately, I had a technical problem trying to use a photo from your Flickr account.

So I have used a random McCoy photo from the web as a worked example.

First of all you need to find/copy the image address of the photo, which will look something like this.

https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikiped...oy_kit_car.jpg

Then you need to add [ img ] before and [ /img ] afterwards, but without the spaces inside the brackets.

So the code for the photo will now look like this.

[ img ]https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/f/ff/McCoy_kit_car.jpg/220px-McCoy_kit_car.jpg[ /img ]

And if you remove the spaces, it will appear like this.



Many photo sharing sites will provide you with the complete IMG code if you use a "Share" option, or something similar.

Hope that helps and good luck, Paul.


PS
By adding the IMG code to one of your previous links I get this...
