With me it always works.. you have to use the url of the image and not the website, you know that right?

so you have to do this: url just like this: (it would be soo embarrassing if it wouldn't show up this time, so i'll just pray that it shows the picture XD)

Nothing to do with Google?
Just confusing codes on forum to get things up if you don't know how to, I just put the url to the picture rather than the image, 'cos I know how to do that xD

Maybe just that you do something wrong.
Or it's something with you'r browser.

Cause it works for most people on AG.

It's not Google, it's you people who are getting the wrong link. The link in the address bar is not necessarily the image's direct link. Make sure you click on full-size image, and get the link from the page which appears. Or better yet, right click on an image and select "Copy Image Location/URL". Paste the URL wherever it is needed.

So if I wanted to post an image I'd upload it to Image Shack or something, copy the direct link, put link and it will come up, or how does it work?
