Just trying to post images, and failing. You can ignore this thread. Unless you want to help, that's fine too.

I don't see your images at all.  However, I do see very small image icons, and if I tap those I get an image.

Ok. That is what I get too. I'm using Flickr. Do you know how to get the .gif link?

Sorry, I don't.  I don't use Flickr, and I'm on my Android tablet that I can't even figure out cut and paste on.

forget about the gif link

In your picture linked to Testing

 There is a curved arrow at the very lower right.

Click on it

Click on BB Code in the pop up window. highlight the code that appears and copy it.

In your post, don't use any icons, just hit control v.

The link includes other information that you might not want to post, like your full name.  To get rid of that only use this part.  I have replaced the open bracket with the parenthesis so it is visible in this post.

I don't know how one does that on an smart phone.

Then:

 MR_Photo2 by Edmund, on Flickr

When the BB Code is highlighted, copy using right click > copy or as Big Daddy mentions, Ctrl+C.

DO NOT use the insert image menu but simply paste the copied text into your reply.

You won't see your image in your reply until you post the reply. It will look something like this:

Good Luck, Ed

Sorry. Didn't know it existed. I'm going to mess around with this on my laptop later. I think that will be the ticket.
