   I've been using Creative Commons to find individual photos that I can use to add color to my blog posts. The easiest way I've found to post these is to use the "blog it" feature from within Flickr. This generates a new post on my blog containing the photo.

   However, I'd often like to preview the post first, add some formatting, etc., before it's posted live. Without using html (which I don't know), I haven't found a good way to do this within Flickr. Is there a setting on WordPress 2.7 that will allow me to "delay" or "approve" (and thus have an opportunity to edit) a post before it's posted?

   Alternatively, is there another way to easily incorporate a random Flickr image into my post? I don't need to use a feed, as the photos are not from a regular source.

   Thanks!

   Have you tried any of the Flickr plugins?

   Some of them add a new section to the image upload area letting you pick your images from Flickr instead of uploading one.
