FYI, the "trick" to show the photo is: If the photo doesn't appear, you probably see instead a small blue box with a question mark.  Right-click that question mark, and, in the resulting menu, select "Open Image in New Window."  You'll now see the image in a new web browser window.  Copy the URL for that window, and paste it here using the "Insert other media" drop-down box.

Well, that must work for Windows . . .doesn't for Mac.

My work browser blocks both the image and Tumblr link. But I saw the photo at home last night...had never seen it before and found it quite striking!

I'm on a Mac.  I went to the Tumblr page, control-clicked on the image in question (opened it in another tab), and got the URL to paste in here.  My resulting image seemed slightly smaller than mjzee's, which made me wonder whether he had gotten his image elsewhere.

Yes, I've been able to view pictures too in the past, but not with that Windows method.

No, I got it from that Tumblr page (what is Tumblr, anyway?), and I'm on a Mac.  I did leave out the step that Jim R mentioned.  So my full process was: right click on the question mark, choose Open Image in New Window, which brings you to the Tumblr page.  Find the photo and click on it; this brings up the larger image.  Right click on the image and choose Copy Image Address (don't copy the URL at the top of the window).  Paste it here using Insert other media.

I think they call them "gymnasts" now.
