Hi Juliet,
 
I've had an issue with images in my posts before. 
 
Sometimes the forum will turn the following: [external image: 6YRrgUC.png]

[img=http://i.imgur.com/6YRrgUC.png]

 
into the following: [external image: x6YRrgUC.png.pagespeed.ic.HjgFxjvw2Z.jpg]

[img=http://3-ps.googleusercontent.com/x/forums.whatthetech.com/i.imgur.com/x6YRrgUC.png.pagespeed.ic.HjgFxjvw2Z.jpg]

To fix, click the light switch in the top left corner, and remove the following (in bold) from the URL: http://3-ps.googleusercontent.com/x/forums.whatthetech.com/i.imgur.com/x6YRrgUC.png.pagespeed.ic.HjgFxjvw2Z.jpg
 
Other times, the forum will revert the URL back to normal. I'm unsure of the cause.
