Ali:
I just tried linking the picture into my gallery just to test it.
It worked for me, sorry.

Hard to say what is causing the link not to work, but one thing I've noticed is that sometimes when cutting and pasting a link I've accidentally added a blank space at the end of the address causing it to screw up.

Unless of course the ~ (shortcut) in the address is causing issues.

Try it again and I'll keep an eye open for it.

Two Suggestions. Both are very general but sometimes it works
1) Make sure you do not have any special invisible symbols creeping into the text either et the beginning or end of the address. To do this delete everything from the end/begining including the last/first symbol and insert them then manually

2)Remove spaces from the name. I run at some similar issue with photobucket some time ago.It automatically removed spaces from the file name and for some reason link to that didn't work. I know that later they fixed this issue but who knows with other hosts.

Thanks for the tips guys. I just tried again a couple of times and nothing - just the same big black rectangle on screen and the error message.

Then I just randomly decided not to score it 9 like I had been doing every time I tried to submit. Instead I left the score unchecked and guess what.....IT WORKED!!! Obviously the computer gremlins did not agree it was worth the 9 I was trying to give myself.

I really dislike computers and I think they know it;)
