Tilted Forum Project Discussion Community - changes that might effect flickr image codes?

I don't know exactly when flickr installed the automatically-generated codes for BB, blogs, and whatever else; I'm guessing since their last major update (Jan. of last year) but ever since someone else suggested it here in support, (it might have been fiatguy, 10% chance?) I go the route of simplicity for attribution.

On the ohter hand, if I see an image without any description whatsoever, I get kind of pissed (better fit word: "fueled") and try to see if I can find the origins of the image, within 2 minutes is a bonus.

I've known about both websites for more than a year now, perhaps verging on two, but only in the past six months have I joined the two forces together to find the source and creative intrigue that inspired the creation that I am now beholding. Not enough people state their sources, anywhere really, but of the hundreds of blogs I've come to uncover over the past year, and along with some of the people that I follow on tumblr, flickr, 2photo, deviantart, and dozens of other locales, I can at least rummage around myself and see if I can put the right name to the right picture. It's my goal; and it does help me uncover other great astounding works by the same author, and/or their peers.

If you see how I've adopted the "bracket system", that states where I found the source;

for example:

you say you found this image here, but couldn't find the author. I'd post the image...and just bracket the source

But if I did happen to find the creator, I'd state right under the image, post its "title", and give a link to the author's webpage, if he/she has one, along with their name.

now, I'll move on to giving the picture its due information... if you'd like to follow along, you'll notice here that I have input the image into TinEye, and wouldn't you know it, only 1 source popped up. The key though, is that one source is the most relevant one (not to mention the originating one)... I've gotten good enough now to recognize which sources will aid me in my search for "the one true name", and which ones are just wastes of my time. Still, it's really just a hit-or-miss type of shooting gallery.

Onwards... to properly displaying this image in my newfound method of giving my audience all they could possibly want in terms of context:
