Node background-image not working (Only images from Flickr display)

[Joel Brogan]

Hello all,

I am having trouble getting the background-image node property to work.  

I am simply using the "Images & breadthfirst layout" demo as a test example, but I cannot even get that to work.

In the demo, within the 'code.js' file, if I change any image path to anything other than staticflickr, the image will not display. For instance:

If I change 

    .selector('#bird')

      .css({

        'background-image': 'https://farm8.staticflickr.com/7272/7633179468_3e19e45a0c_b.jpg'

      })

to 

    .selector('#bird')

      .css({

        'background-image': 'http://joelbrogan.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/11/me.png'

      })

The image shows up blank in the graph (as shown in the attached image).

I have tried local files, multiple other images hosted on different sites, and the only images I can get to work are from flickr.

Am I completely missing something?

Thanks,

Joel
