Is it possible to imbed pictures from flickr? I inserted a URL provided by flickr and it hit preview and it only gave me the little squiggly "picture not working" box. E.G.

You pasted the URL of the page the picture is on, not the picture itself.

What you should do is click the "Share" button atop the photo, select "Grab the HTML/BBCode", and select the radio button for "BBCode". Copy the provided code and paste it in a post. What you should get is this:
