Linking/embedding photos with Flickr

With the recent Photobucket fiasco a lot of people, not just here but on many other forums, are moving to other host sites.
I'll probably only use Flickr for cell pics, and stay with Google Photos for camera shots.

A member on Pentax Forums offered the following, which I think might be helpful for some members here who are not familiar with Flickr.
(Note, the poster used original size since he was addressing a camera forum audience, I'd choose one of the medium sizes for posting here.)
Good luck!
Here's his post:

click the arrow in the middle:

You get this, you can choose size from the drop down menu. When you choose original then exif is retained.

You copy the code with the right mouse click menu or ctrl-c. If you don't want it linking back to flickr edit out everything that is not between

Yes, very concise, thanks Rich!
I had muddled my way through the process before finding any guidelines.
