Okay, when I try to upload an image, it appears for a little bit, then it just displays a tiny box and maybe a blue-text "image" message. I am putting eligible image urls into the Image messages (it does have .png/.jpg/etc at the end and isn't the crazy long urls you get from some images), so what's wrong? Is it maybe the computer I'm using?

I had the same problem before, but now I just use attachments for images. Like this! Just go to preview and scroll down. If you can't find the problem, you can just do that.

Can you post an example of an image that you couldn’t get to work so I can help figure out why? Thanks.

For an example, on the forum game "Badly Drawn" I tried putting in an image of a blastoise I drew but it never showed up. I think it might be my computer.

Attachments work if it’s a local file too.

I checked the image on that page, it seemed to be a broken image link, it took me to a page to upload photos and didn’t show one there.
