Add #1 — That only gives the gallery link (album link).
Add #2 — Nichole Meuse, winner of the 2025 Iron Butt Rally; she’s the second female winner of the IBR (Wendy Crockett made history as the first in 2019)

So far, nothing displays the picture, only a link to it.
FYI - sometimes a ref to wiki produces a box like that with nice clickable header but mostly filled with computer gibberish, not the first paragraph of the article.
That’s a compatibility problem between Discourse and some versions of some wiki page templates. You didn’t cause that, and you can’t fix it.
Because when I entered his link, it went not to the pic, but to a hosting page. Despite looking correctly formed, that’s not what it did.
Which was evidence to me that Postimg.cc was actively trying to prevent hotlinking.
then I tried again and it worked as a hot-link as you’d expect and image was displayed inline. About then @Pleonast’s post showed up, proving the same thing.
Color me confused.
For @HeyHomie: I’m pretty sure it’s not you, but rather postimg.cc that is causing your problems.
The other possibility is there’s a space or other invisible character in front of the “h” in “https” or after the “g” in “png”.
Any time anyone is working on a phone, there are a lot of “helpful” features of copy/paste that are working against you.
