Those are links to the pages not the actual picture. If you right click over the picture and select properties you will see the link to the jpg file. It's a very long link - it will display shortened below but is about 3 lines long.

Unfortunately it seems that MSN have included some unusual characters in that long address that this forum software doesn't like when trying to use it as an image link. Don't think there is an easy answer to this one.

Photobucket (http://www.photobucket.co.uk) works for me. It even gives you the codeds for putting it on here, with the [IMG] tags already put around it, so it's a simple cut-paste-post job.

Actually, I think I might remember you saying you had problems with photobucket.

In which case, try TinyPic (http://tinypic.com/) Don't worry, it doesn't give you tiny pictures, it gives you tiny URL addresses. I've used it a couple of times and got on with it well.
