Guide to posting photos from Flickr

Post by Dermot Higgins »

As there seems to be some confusion about posting photos from Flickr here is a quick guide.

  • Log in to your Flickr account.
  • Select the photo you want to share (see screenshot below).
    Image
  • Click on the Image icon.
  • From the White box select the Grab the HTML/BBCode section (see screenshot below).
    Image
  • Select BBCode Radio button (not the HTML one as in the screenshot above).
  • Copy and paste the code in the box (all you need is the section including the tags):

    Shows the image at the top of the page.
  • Paste the code in the relevant topic on the site.
Any other help is available @ https://www.flickr.com/help/photos/#2265887.
