Why doesn't my link to an image in my gallery work?

Below is the bbcode:

[_img]http://azurin.org/gallery/main.php?g2_view=core.DownloadItem&g2_itemId=9979[/img_]

It looks like this when I post it:

main.php
 

Hi alvinpaul,

Just hazarding a guess here. Either:
1. Your site has been configured to hide the real path of the image. You might have done this to prevent hotlinking to your images?
2. The vBulletin does not allow PHP in images to prevent from exploits.

Could be a mixture of both. In any case, I don't think you can post using the
 

it dosent allow hotlinking.

the url of the image must end up with a .jpg or .png etc. in order to work.
even for such cases, some websites still dont allow hotlinking with such URLs
 

I think in your case it's probably to do with hotlinking. If you were to look under site admin -> URL rewrite and see what's going on there? :dunno:
 

Then how does some people able to have their image shown on the reply thread itself? Thanks!
