It always says failed? It looks like the max file size is very small.

You need to edit your pics down to a better size. I use pixlr.com, which is free. You can crop pics, enhance the pics, etc. It's good to learn how to work with images.

Use the X version which is more basic and easier to use.

Here's how to post an image from Flickr.

Go to the image you want to share, and click on the right curved arrow in the lower right corner.

A new window will appear with choices for "Share", "Embed", "Email", and "BBCode". Click on "BBCode" and then select the size of the image you want to share. The text needed to share the image will be in the text window.

Highlight the entire line of text and paste where you want the image to appear. Don't bother with the image tags, as they are already in the link you copied.

This is what the link you copy and paste will look like. It will be different for each image, but will have the same format:

[url=https://flic.kr/p/2kVwH9d][img]https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/51145237184_98d2d71436_c.jpg[/img][/url][url=https://flic.kr/p/2kVwH9d]0420211636_HDR[/url] by [url=https://www.flickr.com/photos/192879473@N04/]Richard Montemarano[/url], on Flickr

Same issue with images, sometimes 150 kb is not enough, even for small images.
