What does this mean?

I tried to set a background for my shop but i got this message:

Hang On! There's a new rule!

You can only embed src files that end in:

.jpg
.jpeg
.gif
.bmp
.png
.midi
.wav
.mp3
.mid

You cannot use any variation of the <src=somelink> tags to embed files that end in

.com/albums/m559/laceew45/shop from this url: http://i1131.photobucket.com/albums/m559/laceew45/Shop

You may not have used the 'img src' tag, but this applies to all tags that have 'src' in it, such as 'background src'.

You probably have the wrong link. When I clicked on it it came up as "This page does not exist". I'm a Photobucket user so I know that Neopets allows images to be linked from there. My guess is you didn't get the direct link, which is the one you need to use in your graphics. To get the direct link just click on the image in your library and on the right side of the page there will be a section with the heading "Links to share this photo", just click on the box beside direct and it should automatically copy for you. Once you have that copied you can paste it into neopets. Just make sure you saved it as one of the allowed sources as listed above. I hope this helps! :)

I figured out what the problem was. I cannot load it into an actual album. I have to just upload the pictures and then get that direct link.. Thanks for the help!
