Let's see if this helps. :)

Click on the Share Photo button.

Choose the BBCode option and copy that. Paste that into the forum.



This part is optional, but I always do it:
Image
I deleted every EXCEPT what I have selected. So the part in between the [ img ] and [/ img ] stays.

Hope this helps.

Wait, wait, I think maybe . . .

EDIT: Never mind. I'm getting closer, though.

Then only options I get in that menu are Share or Email, no Embed or BBCode options. I'm 99% certain at this point it has something to do with the fact I'm on mobile. Sadly, we just cancelled our home internet service earlier today, so I have no way right now to see if it works on my laptop. :(

Update: Upon further research and digging through the Flickr help forums, it appears I'm not the only mobile user with this issue. -_- I hate the internet sometimes.

SCORE!
Those mobiles can be finicky sometimes. They all want you to do it THEIR way. Sometimes it just takes a while to figure out what their way is.

Apparently, some sites have made it almost impossible to get BBCode from their sites if you're on mobile. Some sights have made it impossible. I finally got it to work with imgbb.com, and it's a relatively simple interface. I'll take it.
