As an experiment, I created a web page at sites.google.com.
I uploaded a photo there and then posted that photo on the forums board at Ebay.
Here's where the 'teaser' comes into play .. I am the only one that can see it!?
I built the page and posted it using the Opera browser.
Now if I use Chrome, Firefox or IE to view the same photo at the same forums .. I can't see it!?
Even if I delete my cookies in Opera and sign out of my Ebay account .. I can Still see the photo but nobody else can .. Even if they are using Opera!?
Not really any kind of emergency or problem (I Did say vanity) to overcome it's just as I said .. a teaser .. for sure.
I have that same picture posted in this message below and .. I can see it but .. Can You?
I see no pictures — what is the full URL?
what picture??????????????????????????
I smell spam.............
Are you logged in?
Why the hell would you smell SPAM?
Early dinner?
Wild guess but sometimes you think you are sending someone a picture as an attachment or inserting it in some document, you check it an the picture appears correctly but what you really posted,attached or inserted is a link to the file on your hard drive, the link works for you cause it is on your hard drive but it doesn’t work for anyone else because obviously they do not have access to your hard drive.
SO make sure whatever you are posting, attaching or inserting is an actual file not a link.
Where’s the link?
Are you a stallion with a white star on your forehead?????? and three stockings. You are an amazing typist considering your hoofs.
That is the point of the post!
Maybe now is a good time/place to point newbs in the right direction.

Cool. That's your login, etc.... encrypted. And there are hacks to decode that.

Not a link per say.
It is an image url and I can see it but .. You can’t.
I know something about website and page building.
The only difference is .. In one image, I’m using google’s website image/hosting site to post the image, (the one that only I can see) and the one that Everyone can see is hosted on photobucket.
Same html coding .. just different hosts.
