Error with Insert Image

[carrielsal]

Every time I try to use the option to Add an Image from a URL I get the error, error:Remote File is too large. I have tried Firefox and Chrome with the same results.
Thanks,
Carrie

How large is the image you're trying to use? Link please?

It doesn't appear to be a size issue. I have tried posting pics that other people have posted to test. Here is an example. The post below has an image. I get the same error if I try adding a link to that image.

Photobucket does some weird stuff with their URLs and linking.

If I click on the magnifying glass and then check the image of the popup, I get this for a link:

Which gives me:

when used with image tags.

The link you provided isn't a true .gif link as photobucket put .html on the end of it.

To get the real image link, click the magnifying glass to get the image popup, and then right mouseclick on the image. Select Copy Image Location.

Interesting. I didn't know about the hidden html. Where is the magnifying glass you are referring to?
