I cant seem to properly make a picture pop up in my profile description. I have looked over all the other threads regarding this subject and still cant seem to get it correct. Most of the time I get the picture icon with the lower right corner cut but thats it. Does it mean I am doing it semi right? Haha

Well the html for inserting an image is simply:
<img src="url here">
example:
<img src="http://i.imgur.com/FMvTJ5k.jpg">
The only real trick is to make sure you're using the direct link to the image, and I guess if you're on mobile be mindful of autocorrect screwing with your syntax.

I'm lookin at the source and that's not the direct link to the image, looks like a URL from a search result. With very rare exception the direct image link will end with the file type of the image, probably .jpg or .png.

What do you mean by "pop up"? Are you just looking to have an image in your profile description, or are you looking for something like linked card text when you mouse over it?
