You seem to have put a space in the URL somewhere, and left our what directory (if any) you put the pictures in. For instance, one URL is http://mywebpages.comcast.net/rivka5/lj pic mourners.jpg . Note the space between the words, "lj" pic" and "mourners".
Unfortunately, even after the url is compacted, there's no image there.
Actually, you don't have to put them on web space elsewhere to interst them as images.

is a direct link to one of my user pic URLs. The URL is http://www.livejournal.com/userpic/556966
