To make your Flickr images show up [url=https://www.flickr.com/help/photos/#2265887]go to this Flickr page[/url] and read how they suggest to do it. Use the BBCode links they provide in the instructions.

I don't use Flickr I host the images on my own site I use to host my own website. I'm not exactly new to this and I tried every configuration I know, and it still didn't work.

I don't know. I simply quoted your post and the first one, which looks correct, immediately showed up. I then clicked on the 2nd live link, copied the Address from the link box at the top of the window, came back, pasted it and bracketed it with the img codes and it worked.

Something is wrong here. One of those 3 codes should have worked.

Agreed. I just simply copied and pasted your post above and it worked.
In any case the first one is the correct one and it does work as you can see.

If it works for you, and it's right, why wouldn't it work for me. What's the difference?

The link you posted would not show up as a pic for me, either. I opened your pic in a new page, copied the link from the browser window and reposted it, adding the vB tags, it still showed up the same way it did for you ... as a link surrounded by the tags.

Out of curiosity, I opened it in a new page, then clicked on Open Location, under Edit in my tool bar. The link looked the same, but when I copied and posted the link from my browser, and added the vB tags, the image showed up.

I'm not at all knowledgeable about computer stuff, so I don't pretend to understand how the links are different, but in some way, they are. I have no clue what Open Location does or is supposed to do. (I don't think I've ever clicked on it before in my life! :lol: )

I did note that you have posted the same links on other garden forums, and they didn't show up as pics on those forums, either. So, there has to be something about the original link itself, not just the THG forum.
