Yep, this is the email I received from the bidder after the auction ended and they paid for their item via Paypal.
"I am deeply SORRY. but i bought the wrong one. i already paid with my paypal with my other email address [email protected]. If it is possible can i get a refund. PLEASE. i was trying to buy it as a gift for my friend, and i found out just today that that is not the right now. I hope you can take my apology. Please reply to me soon. Thank you so much. Hope to hear from you soon."

The problem is your URLs & VD -- what ya need is just the plain ole stupid pic & then just copy & paste the URL from yer address bar.
VD ain't easy nor really meant for posting to boards -- tis why I use a CHEAPO or FREE host for my JUNK pics such as DeadZoom or
