If you want your photos from Flickr to show up in your posts, instead of a link, follow these directions which I've posted for others before. Photos instead of links are more appreciated. These are instructions for posting from a PC.
...with Flickr, you have the ability to copy and paste code that works in posting photos on this site.
Go to your photostream in Flickr and click on the photo you'd like to post here. When that photo loads as a single photo, you should see a series of symbols in the lower right corner of the screen. The curved arrow is what you are looking for.
Click on the curved arrow. After doing so, you should get a screen that says, "Share 1 photo to:". Select the BBCode tab. The code you see in the box is what you will copy and place in your post to show the photo. If you don't know, ctrl+c is copy, and ctrl+v is paste. After you've copied the BBCode, all you have to do is paste it directly in your post. Oh yeah, select "medium" as the size before you copy, as that attribute should be placed in the code you copy.
So with your OP (original post), simply go edit it by deleting your old photo links and pasting in the new ones from the BBCode generator. Again, just place it directly. You don't have to select "link" or "image" from the formatting menu. Hope this helps.
Good luck.

nik Looks like you got it.  If you want to go a bit further and eliminate the text next to your photos, you can do so by simply trimming some of the BB Code that you pasted. If it makes no difference to you, then disregard the info below.  Here is the code for your particular photo. Normally, it is one long line, but I had to separate it into two to work with the embedding boxes: [url=https://flic.kr/p/2grYezL][img]https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/48207928426_18011490db_z.jpg[/img][/url][url=https://flic.kr/p/2grYezL]IMG_20190706_074212[1][/url] by [url=https://www.flickr.com/photos/182276465@N04/]nik hintz[/url], on Flickr
The first part of the code which ends with the [/url] is for your image. Everything after that relates to the text being visible. If you delete everything after that first [/url] as seen in the first line, your posted photo will look like this.  There will be no text, but your photo will still be clickable. Of course, you can simply just copy the first part of the code and then paste that, but I find it easier just to copy everything and delete the back end after it's pasted. Good luck.
