I'm attempting to get the photos to display without having to click the links.

Terry, the URL for the picture has to be inside image tags like this:

 [img]https://farm8.staticflickr.com/7442/12679461185_fc863136a5_m.jpg[/img]

Then they will display:



Make sure the link is to the picture and not to an album.  If the photo hosting site doesn't give you an option that includes image tags, then the easiest way is to copy the picture's URL, then in your post click on the "Insert Image" button (right below the "Bold" button), this will insert a set of image tags, then you can paste the picture link inside of them.

Deleting the "s" is no longer necessary since the updates back in September.  Here's a post about it: Embedding Videos in Your Posts - Latest Update

You got it, Terry!    With FireFox, I can just right click on the picture and click "Copy Image location", then paste it into the "img" tags.  Easy peasy that way.

Do it a few times and you'll have it down in no time.
