Why does the HL boards have problems linking images from MSN.communities???

Several other boards I visit dosent have this problem???:mad:

hmmm
try renaming your picture you're trying to link to from *whatever*.JPG to *whatever*.TXT
and try linking to the '.TXT' file...

Do it anyway. There are no consequences in this simulated environment.
Right, Shrike? :p

Never mind what I said... :doubt:

ignore what the celestial one said :)
rename them back to normal .JPGs, and give us the URL to them (don't try putting the IMG tags on)
we'll see if they work

Secret Service Man 1: What the hell is this? It's gibberish!
Secret Service Man 2: No. Look closer.
Secret Service Man 1: My God, it's a plot to kill the President! And...it's being engineered by...an internet Bulletin Board! The board, not the people!
Secret Service Man 2: You bet your ass, Dave.

It doesn't work with a link like that becaues there's a space between "_Secure/" and "0MgBpZTIR2qV..."
so that link will not work
If you use html, it will

[edit] ok, so it won't...url is probably too long [/edit]

and this is what happens when I try to post an image
