Using HTML Code to Format your Comments

Adding style or links to your comments can help you stand out and make your contributions more engaging. If you’re new to HTML, don’t worry — it’s simple to get started.

When using Flickr in a web browser, you can format your comments with HTML code. (This feature isn’t available in the Flickr app.) 

Use HTML tags to style your text

  • Bold: <b>your text</b>
  • Italics: <i>your text</i>
  • Underline: <u>your text</u>
  • Deleted: <del>your text</del>
  • Block Quote: <blockquote>your text</blockquote>
