This is the first problem I've had with flickr - has there been any kind of change that would cause the problem? I've tried posted both the html and the link and neither work.

Kimberly, if you right click (or ctrl click on a mac) on the picture in flickr, you will be given the option of choosing the medium or large size (I prefer the smallest medium size as the others are ginormous). Choose one of those and then right click on it again and you will see a few options including "copy image address". This is the "link" you need for it to show up on here. It has to end in a ".jpg". Does that help?

You used to be able to get that link directly from the photo in your photostream, but now you have to choose a size to get that option. I don't know why.

Thanks, Siobhan. I found this message on Flickr while I was checking on that solution: "We understand that many people were using that link on message boards to show their images and we are working on a solution that will allow you to post using BBCode (standard message board code) that links back."
