I think it's that image/address that's the problem. I put the link in the address bar and nothing happened.

Try another image like:

Code: Select all

The reason it isn't working is that you are linking to a page, not an image.

the link to the image is

http://img208.imageshack.us/img208/6290 ... 439lb1.jpg

(right click the image and select copy image location, in firefox)

so

Code: Select all

Will give you :
