Why don’t those links work? Everything is right, even the lowercase. Anyway,

Try this:

I think Geocities doesn’t like people linking to pictures hosted on their site like that. It works if you go to [http://www.geocities.com/cxzzxc2](http://www.geocities.com/cxzzxc2) and add the “talibanair.jpg” manually.

Now I wait for the picture to load so I can make further comments.

Nah. It works if you just copy n’ paste th’ whole www address to your address bar.

**Farmer** , that’s interesting. Sorry, it’s 2.30 am here, and I need sleep. It’s cool.

Quick Geocities trick: Add a space after the filename to allow outside linking.

The first link **Farmer** posted worked just fine for me. Great picture, by the way.

Okay, maybe I am just really stupid…but… I don’t get it…

Maybe I need to stay away for 20 more hours, will it make sense to me then?
