    for use on a web page or something like a blog that accepts limited html, the anchor tag in html is what you are looking for (in html) which has a basic form of;

    <a href="url to your flickr or other web page">some identifying text</a>

    like this;

    <a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/tgkw/">TGKW's Photo Stream</a>

    if it is for use on boards, just type your text eg:

    My Flickr ->highlight it->hit the link button createlink.gif->paste in your flickr link->click ok

    I think this is what you are asking.

    This way is SEO friendly type of making a link. Putting URL directly is not user friendly. You should also put link over a keyword. That will surely provide you all types of benefits.
