For laughs

Not sure what I'm doing wrong...why my copy/paste isn't providing an image rather than a link. Anyway, enjoy!

I think that's the problem. Otherwise it is known as a "hotlink" and sucks space from the host site. You need to download the image to a site of your own, some online photo sharing site like Photobucket or Picasa, then scoop up the link from there and post that.

That little obstacle course will probably discourage me from posting many pics.
