I often hear of people having troubles sharing images in threads from their flickr account. I saw there was a discussion from awhile back, but perhaps it was too intimidating for people (and flickr has changed their user interface a couple times) so I just wanted to take a brief moment to help everyone who may need a few visual cues.
First, go the flickr page for the photo you want to share. Above the photo are a couple drop down menus titled "actions" and "Share"......click share to activate the drop down menu....it will look like this......

your options on this menu are "share this via...", "grab the link" or "grab the HTML/BB code"......click on the grab the HTML/BBCode.
now click the checkbox at the bottom of that window for BBCode. Highlight the text in that box (after selcting the size you want) and copy it.
Now go the thread on the serious compacts forum where you want to insert the image and click inside the box as if you are going to type some text and then paste. It should look like this......

After you hit submit..... it will look like this (except yours won't have that handsome icon next to it )

If this little tutorial has helped you, do someone a small favor today. If you still have questions, just let me know.
