How does one link to flickr pics now? They appear to have changed the properties of pictures from jpeg which I just used to cut and past with img in brackets around it. It's only letting me make a link rather than post the pic 🙁

Oh, and instructions in words of one syllable for a techno retard please. Thanks!

I am so glad my mother refuses to give me any photos…especially the one of me with turquoise shorts yellow shirt and tank top at an aunties wedding. Phew 😕
