Why can't I view Image links to attachments on this site?

Like for a poll with pictures or something. All of the pictures which are actually links to attachments come up as red x?

Attachments made to posts on this site are only viewable to registered users of this site who are logged into their account. This is to prevent people from stealing our bandwidth.

Yeah but I am logged in. For example this thread:

the pictures hosted on this site are red x's

Well, that's because the links to those images are all incorrect. The correct way to link to an attachment image is like this:

[IMG]https://www.gtplanet.net/forum/attachment.php?attachmentid=42142[/IMG]

The incorrect way, which is being used in that thread, is like this:
