Default How to post pics in text field

How do you upload a photo so that it appears in the same field as your text when you post it. I've been able to provide a link, upload a thumbnail that you can click, but not post a larger size picture directly into the text field. I would really like to because it looks nice and makes it easy for others to view when reading your post.

Please advise

Upload the photo to flickr. On the photo page top left click "share" -> "Get Html/BBcode", copy and paste the code.

Should look something like this:

Yeah I tried that. It didn't seem to work. Told me there was an error or that it was invalid.

try it again. The instructions from Jamie are correct. Make sure after you upload the photo, click on it in your Photostream to open it in the next window.

Upper left above the image click on "share"
get the code for Medium Sized
Copy it by right clicking on the code that's in that box.
come back here and paste it into your post.

You can upload the picture anywhere as long as you get the url to the image file. I use the button in the editor with the mountains and yellow sky to attach my images.
