Need help using Flickr

I'm having difficulty using Flickr. I've got the account and have pictures uploaded. My problem is getting pictures to show in my posts. I can use manage photos and embed the picture into the post, however this does not give access to Flickr and the ability to use the + button to expand the picture. I want to have the picture embedded with the arrow showing when you mouse over the picture that brings up the Flickr site. What I'm doing is locating my picture in Flickr and click on the upload arrow. This provides a link which when used appears in the forum, however the picture doesn't show. You have to click on the link to get to Flickr to view the picture.

Would someone please detail the correct procedure? I've searched for guidance but haven't found any.

Thanks in advance!

You'll want to locate the sharing BBCode on flickr. Then, just paste that into a forum post:
