It is quirky in that when I upload one, I have to click my name upper right, click Images, click the image just uploaded and click direct link and copy it.

The gist of it is that here on DU, whatever image you want posted HAS to end with jpg/gif, etc.

You will need to "share" the photo with "everyone".
You will need to link/export the photo with a URL ending in ".jpg".

Nice photo, by the way!
