Bug Posting Images via Link does not work

[BackSet]

When I attempt to post images via link all that shows up is a white box featuring a mountain or something. Like this:

Not sure if this is only on my end and everyone else can see the image or if this is a problem in general.

Huh. It's working for me now too. Wonder what the problem was. Maybe it's like how links show up as white before posting but show up as blue after posting. Let's do another test.

Edit: I was right.

I've generated a bug report on xenforo since this seems to be an issue with the softare: Posting Certain Images via Hotlink breaks Preview

I got a reply back. The answer seems to be that Wikia is applying some sort of hotlink protection which can cause issues outside of their site.

Ah. That makes sense.
