Almost but not quite.

I repaired it. If you Reply with Quote to this message you'll see how I placed your photo URL between the \"opening\" and \"closing\" parts of the tag. Also deleted \"size=150\" from inside the opening img tag. -moss[img] tag. Also deleted \"size=150\" from inside the opening img tag.
