Please help: Image not displaying in block

Hello!

I was wondering if someone might be able to clue me as to why a block that I am trying to create will not display an image. The text in the block displays just fine, but the image will not display no matter what. What I would really like to do is this:

    <div style='float: right;'>
      Time: Sunday Mornings 10am<br/>
      Location: The Seymor Osman Community Center<br/>
      in the Dover Housing Authority, 40 Hampshire Circle<br/>
      Dover, New Hampshire<br/>
      <img src="http://maps.googleapis.com/maps/api/staticmap?center=40+Hampshire+Circle,+Dover,+NH&zoom=15&size=300x300&markers=color:red%7Clabel:I%7C43.202464,-70.894788&sensor=false"></img>
    </div>

And that works just as I would expect in a test html file, with the text displaying on top of the image. Yet in Drupal, the text is there but the image is not. Figuring that Google might be blocking the incoming link from my site, I saved the map image locally, uploaded that as an Image, and linked to the file directly, like this:

<div style='float: right;'>
Time: Sunday Mornings 10am<br/>
Location: The Seymor Osman Community Center<br/>
in the Dover Housing Authority, 40 Hampshire Circle<br/>
Dover, New Hampshire<br/>
<img src="http://www.iddev.nhkujawas.com/sites/default/files/assets/imago_dei_static_map.png"></img>
</div>

Yet I get the same results: text but no image. I've tried a couple different modules for Google maps, but they don't provide exactly what I am looking for and I'm too new to Drupal (I'm a Java developer by trade) and have too short a deadline to customize them. Any insight on why the block won't work would be GREATLY appreciated.

Thanks in advance!
