The funny thing I always preview my posts before I actually post. When I previewed my earlier post, the quoted images weren't showing at all. There were nothing more than the hyperlink addresses. However, if I am not logged in, those image links in the posts are gigantic pictures of the actual screenshots. Didn't know it would make such a big difference.

As for OP's problem, maybe he should PM either Mikel or Tim (@ FT) or the forum mods and see if they can spot similar abnormality associated with his account.
That's because you have the show images option unchecked in your preferences, so when you're logged in, you don't see them. On a lot of forums images can be a real pain, and I've had to uncheck that option. On FT, I think only the tech and trip report forums have the img code enabled, for the obvious reasons. So, unless you enable the images, any time you're quoting a post in those two forums, just check that links aren't surrounded by the img codes (unless you actually want to include the image, of course).
