The image tags expect a .jpg. If you use the BBcode on flckr it will give you the actual location of your jpg Which you can cut out of the BBcode string. Place it between the image tags. There is undoubtedly easier ways to do this. What I did is pretty klugey.

The .jpg for the above looks like this:

I think some use flckr here and will likely give you a better way😀

I use Flickr, I copy the BBcode and paste it in directly. This should show the image and allow people to click on it to go to Flickr.

I remove the second part of the BBcode

This gives a line of text such as IMG_1611 by Paul Reynolds, on Flickr

You can add a width=900 in the img tag to control the size of the image
