I'd like to resurrect this post because I really love good BW photos but find them very challenging. It would be great to see some of your best shots and hopefully glean some of your secretes to getting some good results. Please show and tell, I'd love to see what you've got and to learn a few things from you.

<span style="font-size: small; font-family: Times New Roman; background-color: #d8fced;"]This is one oh my favorite B/W
Ok, no clue how to post directly from flickr so I loaded this directly from my computer. Not sure if it will resize automatically once I hit the reply button.

On flickr, click 'share' (above the image, in a bar with actions, and social media icons). Click on the 'Grab HTML/BBCode if you're not already on that mode'. At the bottom, select BBCode, choose your resolution, then copy the block of text into the reply.
Thank, David! Before I went with the default HTML. So I will try the BBCode this time. I see my first try went from a teeny photo to a link. Will all posted photos be links now? Should I still be choosing Medium 640 in flickr?

Ooooo, in preview 640 looks good and I like that it puts my name and flickr reference on the bottom of the photo.
Now lets see how it looks after I hit the reply button ...
Looks great Denise! I love the Black and White on the last shot
Flickr BBcode 640pixels wide seems to be a perfect fit
