Can anyone help me post an image? It just won't work for me.

[Wordie]

I've been trying to post an image from a different site into a post of mine. The original image is located here: "....://stopthewall.org/enginefileuploads/bantustansenposter250.jpg" (I left off the "http" part so you could see it.) The original image comes from this site, here: http://stopthewall.org/activistresources/793.shtml


But it just isn't working for me. I thought I could just post the address with the "http" included, but it's just blank everytime I try. The DU HTML reference table, here: http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=html_table says it should work that way, but I sure can't get it to. Anybody a html expert? Can anyone help with this? Thanks!

It's workin' for me. :shrug:



All I did was copy and paste the URL to the photo from your post and add the "http."

Can you see it? I can't.

What do you see?

(No, this is not a Rorshacht test.)

4. Whoopsie! I figured it out! It was a setting in my browser...

The browser was set to load images only from the originating website. For some reason my browser keeps re-setting to that, even though I deselect it.

Thanks for your help. Even if my browser keeps defaulting to "only from originating website" I now know that others can see it, so that'll work.
