    How do we do this now?
    It seems to be different than before, maybe it is Flickr?
    Just the image without access to the Flickr photostream, please.

    Click on the share button and make sure you choose html, that gets you the old code as usual.

    No Sean that's not what Mike means, the Flickr UI has changed, the trick is to access the raw farm URL and post it as the link be it HTML or BBCODE.

    Mike it is the same as before, however the BB share on flickr needs to be edited to remove everything but the bare URL, the code Flickr gives you includes all the references back to Flickr and you basically have to get rid of those to get the URL that you post here.

    You can still post that bare URL between an opening and closing img tag.

    I will try to put an example together later.

    You want to format the bbcode as above then eliminate lines 1, 3 and 4 to leave you just

    Code:

    All of this is fake apart from the actual image link, that's James and his cousin.

    Thanks Jim, Sean.
    I was pasting the line of code including "farm" using the "image" icon in the toolbar instead of in the dialogue box .....
    That image icon seems pointless to me, or am I missing something?
