   On my blog, images are not showing up when I insert them by URL into my posts. This only applies to some of the images though. I can see them on my computer, both signed in and out, but my readers cannot. An example would be this post. "http://absurdnormality.wordpress.com/2010/07/20/new-figures-of-the-week-12/" It also only happens when I link images from "http://ameblo.jp/gsc-mikatan/", "http://ameblo.jp/gsc-asanon/", or "http://ameblo.jp/figma/" Help please?
   Thank you.

   The blog I need help with is absurdnormality.wordpress.com.

   Also, I can view the images on Google Chrome, Firefox, and Internet Explorer if that helps any.

   It appears that you're hotlinking from a site that does not allow it, stealing their bandwidth. You must upload the images to your own site or to a photo sharing site like Flickr or Photobucket, not use images from that site. For all you know, they have to pay for their bandwidth and you're costing them money.

   Ok thank you! I was not intentionally stealing their bandwidth. ^_^;
