I'm in the same boat with trying to figure out Flickr. From the research I've done, there's no way to get the BBCodes from the mobile app, you have to get them from a web browser on a desktop.

You can get the direct image from Flickr, i do this all the time. It's a bit of a pain and not as easy as Photobucket... but screw Photobucket.

1) Click on the photo you want to share.
2) Press the share icon (looks like an arrow pointing right).
3) Select BBCode at the top of the popup window,
4) Select the size you want to share and copy the text in the box displayed.

That's all there is... Flickr will try to link with extra information, but i always remove the extra crap and just keep the IMG link like this:

Code: Select all
