Maybe you are trying to treat the image as an attachment? Rather than adding the URL directly to the message, and rather than using the URL tool which pops up a window where you paste the URL, you may need to use the image tool which pops up a window where you paste the link to the image.

 

The other tricky thing that still gets to me occasionally is that the image link is a specialized form of address, not just a common URL.

why am I the only one who can't get this!!!

 

I use Zenfolio, as discussed earlier in the thread. I click on the image icon and paste a link like this into the space that opens:

 

Here it is just pasted to the page:

And here pasted into the CC image box thingie:

As noted by another above, the only difference is that the image icon box tool thingie adds a HTML IMG tag before and after the URL: IMG within brackets [] to start the image, /IMG within brackets [] to end the image.

So here I took your URL and added the HTML start-image command IMG before the URL, and the HTML end-image command /IMG after the URL (with these two commands enclosed in the HTML Command brackets [] of course)

Your Zenfolio link enclosed in HTML IMG /IMG commands...

 

And that didn't work for the following reason:

 

In zenfolio, you need to select and then click the option to Edit Image. On the right side there is an option Sharing And Client Access. Click that choice, it opens a window offering, among other things, a Direct Links Images. Click there, choose your size. Copy the URL shown, paste here either within the image tool or by using the HTML commands.

 

Here I selected Medium.

Note the difference in the URL generated compared to the first option higher on the screen in the screen capture below:

It is all magic. I know how to do it, but I've gone as deep into why you do it that way as I can get!
