[Freebase-discuss] uri_image_upload

[Kurt Bollacker]

I'm trying to use the uri_image_upload service. I've used it
successfully in the past, but today I'm getting an error:

This .jpg URL is loadable with firefox and wget, so I suspect it is a
valid URL.  Am I doing something wrong, or is there breakage
somewhere?
