Click on the "direct" link and it will yellow out. You are now holding the link. Simply start a post and then paste the link into your new post.

THEN preview your post. Your picture should show up.

Then hit post and all will be well.

You don't even have to set up an account to upload and hotlink pics, but if you do set up an account, all your uploads are saved to your album and when you click on each one it gives you a direct link which you can copy and paste here.
