You are getting very close! You just need to put this between a pair of image tags like this (and put back the http part):

Try dealing with all this code with dyslexia......I'm surprized I get any of it right.

VERY nice cover - and you've about got the whole thing figured out!

The ellipsis (...) is automatically put in by the forum software to prevent display of a long ugly URL in a post. However for it to work right, you need to have the whole original URL in your post. So you can't cut and paste a URL from a displayed post, it will be broken. The URL you have now has the ellipsis in it, so it is broken. Also nr-notrare is correct, you need a slash (/) in the second image tag, but that still won't fix the broken URL.

I suggest that you start again with a new post using the ADD IMAGE button. No need to re-scan the Dutch FDC, you can upload the same image file a second time and you will get a new URL in your post. Then edit the text carefully to get the image URL between two image tags, with the second tag including the slash. Use the Preview button to check your work. Best of luck!
