Okay, let's see if this works.

URL CLIPPED

Oh. Guess not.

...The problem... you are trying to load it in from your Yahoo! Mailbox... and that's all sorts of trouble right there... first off, any decent hacker would be able to gain access to your mailbox with an address... apparently Yahoo! and Hotmail are the easiest net-mail providers to hack ::shrug:: ...I've never had problems meself, tho...

...as for the image... you need it to be actually hosted on some site for others to be able to see it. When it's in an email... it's just randomly floating in cyberspace... not until it has a URL of its own can someone view it outside your mailbox... there are a number of free webspace providers out there... however, much of them will create side difficulties in getting others to view (unless you create a HTML file that simply contains the picture).

Yeah, after i figured it didn't work, i threw in some random numbers in random places to make the address not work anyway. And i already know my problem w/ posting pics, and all. I was just seeing if i could do a few things differently to work around the problem. Oh well. I'll get my pics up sooner or later:rolleyes:

Ah, i'll just have to go to the computer lab at school sometime to use Netscape and get my pics up here. I'll have to wait until Monday though. Oh well, there's nothing more i can do on my own.

I'm going to see if mine will work.

Here goes nothing.

EDIT: Odd, it has turned into a link instead of a image, I'm going to see if I can fix it, until then any help is welcomed.

EDIT: 3rd time the charm.

EDIT: Last try for the night.

Optimal, it has to end with [/IMG] You are just using IMG to close it instead of /IMG

Look at how I make this pic work. I'll steal this pic from cartoonresearch.com
