Bingo! That's exactly what I was looking for. It still should be easier since it's not clear how you did it.

You tagged a IMG to a webpage url, not to a picture url.

Examine both the links and you will see they are identical and that is why it didn't work:

[UrL="http://www.flickr.com/photos/87983685@N05/8512487692/"]test pic[URL]
The url tag looks for a website while the IMG tag looks for a jpg,bmp, whatever image... So in order for IMG to work it has to be a url of the pic itself, nothing else and again just the picture.

All I did to get your picture up was: I went to the site that you linked, right clicked on the picture, selected a size because apparently there are different sizes avalable. And it led me to this page:

[url]http://www.flickr.com/photos/87983685@N05/8512487692/sizes/k/in/photostream/[url]


^ Once on that page I right clicked on the picture , went to properties and copied url for that pic, and went ahead and added the [img][/img]. That's it.


[img]https://farm9.staticflickr.com/8109/8512487692_e4b23c5be1_k.jpg[img]

of course I left out the '/' at the end so you can view the url pertaining to the tags.

Got it?
