It appears that you are testing a method for embedding images into posts. The problem with what you seem to be trying is that the image is likely going to disappear later. Seems like we should figure out something that has more legs then that. Maybe then new forum platform will offer a good solution.

Strange... Data Uris work in the markdown preview, but not the final version...

I wish I could make this post go away. Trying to find a "free" host for images to post here. This was a non-success.

Hm.

Edit: Nope. Again, totally fine Markdown syntax and the preview displays it, but the forum software is smart enough to remove the encoded image.

I think I figured it out! If you look at the HTML for this page, you'll see that the triangular brackets for the image tags are being URL-encoded by the forum software. < is becoming &lt and > is becoming &gt. Because image tags are unsupported, the forum software isn't decoding the brackets. Now to devise a way to either force-decode or not encode at all...
