I'm trying to post an image here for the CCCIX contest, but every time I try, this shows up:
It was not possible to determine the dimensions of the image.
I already know the size but do I have to put that on with the link?

You are almost certainly copying the URL of the page, not the URL of the image. For instance, this link:
http://www.flickr.com/photos/88061820@N ... otostream/
takes you to the page that the image is found on. If I hover my mouse over the image and click the right-hand mouse button, I get a menu with options. Choosing "copy image location" gives this link:
http://farm9.staticflickr.com/8239/8537 ... b5fe_m.jpg
Notice that it ends in .jpg, which indicates that it is the link for an image file. That's the thing you need to put between the img and /img tags.

Can you give a link to the Flickr page where this photo is? (not the .jpg, but the .com)
