Photo links


Could someone please explain how to post a picture, image or a link to either. I tried to link a picture from another site, pasted the correct url addy but only got an X where the image should be. What am I not doing or doing incorrectly?

Thanks

A couple of potential scenarios:

Make sure the link is to the actual .gif or .jpg file because html will not work.

For Example:

http://home.socal.rr.com/recenttreks/SanJaviernBack/photo035...

is a link to a page with a photo, but will not work.

http://home.socal.rr.com/recenttreks/SanJaviernBack/photo035...

however, actually will yield this picture.





Also, some photo sites have this ability blocked as it can drain bandwith
