I have copied the first post in this thread to this wiki so anyone can edit it.
************************************************** *******
A few people have asked in various threads, and I though that this might be a good opportunity to have some instructions for the various image hosting services out there on how to present their images on the TPF forum. I'm going to include the couple responses I've already drafted, but if people have info for ones I haven't included feel free to suggest the provider to me and/or write up the instructions.

If you're having trouble posting images and cannot seem to figure out why they aren't showing up in the post, make sure to check your profile settings. There is an option to display images or not, and that may be the source of the problems. To get to the setting, click on the My FlyerTalk link, then on the Edit Options link. On that page scroll down and make sure that the check box is selected next to the option "Show Images (including attached images and images in [IMG] code)" and save the settings. Hopefully that will fix things.
Update:
Just wanted to add a welcome to folks who are coming over to this thread from some of the other fora that recently had photo embedding enabled. If you're having any problems or want to include details about a new hosting service please feel free to post in this thread and/or PM me.

quick resize tip for Mac
I just found this out and thought I would share it. It lets you create a desktop app (for Macs) to resize your pictures automatically, just drag and drop, it's very easy and quick.

FIGURED IT OUT: In FLICKR you need to go to BB CODE option, select ORIGINAL SIZE and copy the code. Than leave only what's in between "[img]" and "[/img]" (including "[img]" and "[/img]")

Choose BB code and the image size you want then copy that content into the post:
Not all images have the share button because not all photographers enable that option.

To post a photo from Facebook you need to right-click on the image and choose Copy Image URL (or similar) rather than copying the URL from address bar. For that page the image URL is https://fbcdn-sphotos-e-a.akamaihd.net/hphotos-ak-xap1/t31.0-8/p480x480/919854_10201210849619326_279757628_o.jpg.
So the correct full code would be [IMG]https://fbcdn-sphotos-e-a.akamaihd.net/hphotos-ak-xap1/t31.0-8/p480x480/919854_10201210849619326_279757628_o.jpg[/IMG].
