Thanks for all the help.... after one month of reading what feels like everything, and after getting lots of help from the community, I finally published my first post today...
edenstream.com- pictures and all :)
Thanks again.
Until next time.

I have my photos up, (using the methods above), but now I would like for the copyright statement that I have typed beneath the photo not to be as large as my text. Can anyone tell me how to or if it's possible to change that?

So glad you got it to work for you.

Correct that you can't style the link itself and, like the Twitter Blackbird Pie, it has to be on a line by itself and not appear as a highlighted link.

Happy blogging!

Guess what!!! I think it was the italics. When I pasted the URL in to my text- it took on the attributes of my text. I went in and changed the text in the URL from italics to plain text, I got a picture. Happiness!!!
Thanks everyone for sticking it out with me.
The end.

I do have the 'allow auto-embed box' checked. I had already written my post, so I just pasted the link above the writing in my post. It reads:

http://www.flickr.com/photos/zfayssal/4127653707/

I broke the link. It did take on the characteristics of the rest of my text (italics).
I can start over and go through the process with a new post... but that is not the only picture I want to insert. Thanks!

  1. Paste that link in your post.
  2. Make sure it isn't highlighted like a link. If so, in the Editor tool bar click on the "break link" button (looks like a broken chain link)
  3. Underneath the link write "Copyright Fayssal Zaoui and used with permission"
  4. Write the rest of your post
  5. Publish Post

When you view your post, the photo will be already linked back to the photog's flickr photostream.

The URL is http://www.flickr.com/photos/zfayssal/4127653707/

I have written and received permission from the photographer. It allows me the share it to WP, but appears to post straight to my blog. I want to add it to my text.

Also, the photographer has asked that I not forget to add the copyright. I'm not sure I know how to do that- and am a little unclear about the box that is associated with each picture that says: Title, alt text, caption, link URL.... not sure what should be in the link URL box. I promise you that I have spent many hours reading forums and support- but still feel a bit at sea on these things.
Thanks!

It may not be sharing-enabled.

I copied the address, pasted to post and all I had was the address- no photo.

When I right click to copy to my hard drive- I get an all rights reserved notice.

I don't see another way for me to take the photo other than through the WordPress icon which appears to place the picture on my blog, independent of my post.

Sorry to miss whatever is probably very elementary and obvious.
Thanks for helping me!

I will try again to do this as you have said.
Previously, I did save the photo to my hard drive. When I uploaded to my post and viewed as draft- I had a blue question box... and when I clicked that- I had a bunch of attributes and no picture.
I saved to my hard drive with another photo from elsewhere and had no trouble- but wondered if I had broken the rules with Flickr somehow.
Thanks again!

For example: links to Flickr and YouTube."

You can simply copy the address of the page on flickr, paste it into your post, making sure it is not highlighted as a link (unlink if needed) and the image will show up.

It's all written- and I'm trying to add photos. I found one of the photos on Flickr and want to insert it into my text.... the photo has the share icon for WordPress.... but it looks as if it will publish immediately if I tell it to post to WP from Flickr. Is there a way I can put the picture where I want it and publish it when I want to?
Also.... I like the way this WP blog author credits photos. https://filipspagnoli.wordpress.com/2009/11/02/homelessness-a-collection-of-images/
This author has a little "source" link below the photos. Can you tell me how I can do that, (I did write the blog author but have not heard back)? I want photos to flow along with my text, but of course want to honor to the photographer. Is there a best way to do this?
Thanks for your help! Catherine
