This qualifies as winnitude, I think.

From http://talklikeapirate.com/tlapd09_2.html#Europe:

The Jubilee Sailing Trust is a registered charity UK that owns and operates Lord Nelson and Tenacious, the only two tall ships in the world designed and built to enable people of all physical abilities to sail side-by-side as equals. This year they urgin their fundraisers to don an eyepatch on Sept. 19 and talk like pirates as they solicit donations for this fine (and piratical) cause.

... ok, what happened to the pictures? or at least the alt text??

Pictures display when I click on the placeholders but not in the comment itself. This is what I see in the comment notification email:

<img src="http://pics.livejournal.com/run_away_to_sea/pic/0002kxe5"
alt="Two people aloft on a tall ship, one of them in a wheelchair.">

Since the <center> tag works, it's not a matter of HTML being ignored altogether, I think. Try posting a comment using the following syntax to include an image:<img src="http://www.example.net/path/to/image" alt="appropriate text for the image" />(note the final / right before >) with the obvious parameter substitutions. (You can also open a support request since this shouldn't be necessary, I think.)

Perhaps "spam protection" preventing anons and OpenID users from posting images? Just like IIRC links don't get auto-linked for them, for similar reasons.
