please allow me to explain. You posted a link to the web page where your picture is but you did not post a direct link to the actual picture. You can often tell the difference in that a link to the actual picture will include the real file name (in your case: sbDaXdI.jpg) note the .jpg file extension which shows the link ends at the picture and not just short of it on the hosting page.

that's one reason why I like postimage because after you upload the picture you are presented with a list of links to access it in various ways and one of them is a direct link to the picture.

(And by "real file name" I mean the name your hosting site gives the picture, not necessarily the name you gave it on your computer)
