    I know this has been done loads of times, I've read the threads , but i just can't get it to work.
    This is what I do ; click the image tag, a box appears and I copy the Flickr url in the space provided. However when I click "submit post " all that appears is a little box with an "x" in it.

    Heres a typical flickr url http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2142/2173033991_0423bb20f5_o.jpg

    My VB code is on and img code is on... so any ideas where I'm going wrong ?

    There seems to be two "http://" ending up in your post. I suggest trying to remove this part "http://" from the link in your post and trying that.
