So I sorted through the page source, and found what I thought was the problem but I can't get it to work either. The URL is fine, but for some reason when you try to embed it it doesn't take. Strange stuff....

Howdy Colleen:

I'm just a user here, and no expert at all, so I don't know the technical terminologies. Apparently, there are different types of web addressing's and different types of images... and BPL's "a href" is only good for a certain type of address, just like BPL's "src" is only good for "img" type images. I know that I've encountered linking failures with other types of addresses and images before.

As proof, I successfully linked both your photos and Patagonia website at Backpacker Forum!

I know I am not adding anything profoundly useful, but rest assured it's not "you". :)
