Problem with images

Okay, so I tried posting an image in the lounge and it didn't work. Not only did no picture appear, but the tags/coding did not appear either, though if I went to edit mode the tags appeared again.

I'm gonna try it here and see if it does the same thing.

Yep, does the same thing. Can't see the image, but if I go into edit mode I see the tags and where it's supposed to be. What's up?

Might be because image shack is using a PHP script to render their images. In other words instead of a normal path to an image some place the link is calling a script that then finds and renders the image.

This is what your link looks like, notice the my.php?image=foodchain.jpg

Either image shack or the BBS software can see this as an external call to the script and reject the call..... could be a lot of things

Okay, figured it out. Copied the wrong link. Nevermind guys, please lock this thread.
