Hmmmm. Wonder if its "browser-related". Only "odd" thing I have noticed
is that it has that *[/IMG]* in the link. My browser "strips that out"
automatically and "fixes it up". In other words, when I click on the
link in my newsreader and then look at the URL it puts in the browser,
it transforms it to:

http://i12.tinypic.com/2ziyj4w.jpg%5B/IMG

which works just fine. Dunno if all browsers do that. I am using
Firefox, BTW.
