How to add a photo from Flickr to a thread

[Bill]

Here is the dumb question of the year. Once you get a photo on Flickr how do you link it into a reply to a thread here? Note that I have never used Flickr before and, based on my experience so far, find it to be one of the most non-intuitive Web sites I have every encountered, so I need the answer for Dummies. Thanks.

Pick the photo you would like to post from Flicker.
Click on share (above the photo)
pick HTML/BBCode and then a size you would like
Copy and paset that into the post reply box and hit post.
Thats what I do, but there may be other ways.

Oh, I'm the only one alouded to ask "DUMB" question

When you open the HTML/BBCode box, choose BBCode at the bottom of the box. You can also choose the size of the image here.

Thanks Paul and Lynn. Success at last!

What am I doing wrong?
Here is the code copied from Grab the HTML/BBCode

That's the HTML and the forum supports BBCode.  At the bottom of the HTML/BBCode thing there's a button for each.  Click the one for BBCode and it should give you what you need.

Thanks I missed that button.
