Hello James,
I think this is due to how Imageshack handles links to photos hosted on their site.
When you insert the URL of your photo in the the address bar it doesn't just bring up the photo, rather it brings up the entire Imageshack web page which of course isn't a valid image format. You will probably need to try using the Direct Link offered on the Imageshack page rather than the link you used due to this:
I can't test this since I don't have an Imageshack account and it requires logging in to be able to copy that link.
Let us know if you can try that if that works or not. If not you may need to contact Imageshack to determine why since there isn't anything we can do about that from our end without possibly modifying the forum software which we don't want to do.
