    ok got it. you're trying to do an insert image on a link that's not an image, it's a full webpage.

    to get the pic that's on that page, right click the picture of the truck on the flickr page, and click Properties. where it says "Address (URL)", that's the url of the image itself that you can paste into insert image.

    hope that made sense
