I was wondering what that was supposed to be. It looked like you tried to link an image associated with your gmail account or something, which of course you can't do because no one else will be able to see it. When you share like pictures or whatever, do you tend to hotlink? Because you really shouldn't, if only because it is generally unreliable (since the host could take down the image or something at any point) but it's also considered poor manners. Uses bandwidth and all. If you do hotlink, I recommend setting up a photobucket account and using that instead, it is pretty easy (though maybe it is a bit tedious to save a picture from the Internet only to reupload it yourself). Maybe you do this already, I don't know.

Handy guides:
Embedding images
Linking
It's all pretty easy even if it looks like gibberish at first.
Right, well.
