Can't seem to figure it out. It seems the board somehow recognizes the link as a Flickr album and turns it into a slideshow. If I change the linked URL to something different, or even just flic.kr, it remains a regular thumbnail. For example, in my post above with the bathroom photos, they use the exact same EMBED code, except the bottom image has the link changed from "flic.kr/p/alsdkjflsdjfk" to "flic.kr"

I was looking at my old posts with embedded photos with links to the originals, and if I copy/paste the same code into a new post, it now becomes a slideshow.

Anyone have any solutions?
I don't use Flickr, but see if this post helps:
