Embed image from Azure storage

Hi,

We have a really funny problem with embedding an image into an SSRS report.

If we embed an image with a URL of less than 50 characters it works - but if its over it doesnt render at all, even if the URL is valid.

I have tried:

1) Passing the URL in as a parm

2) hard coding it !

3) pass it in from the datasource

An example of the type of URL is as follows (sample only!):

http://myBlobStore.blob.core.windows.net/aa1s2e98-4be3-e222-a60b-00155d01400e/logoBlueImage.png

Which is way more than 50 characters.

Has anyone any suggestions on how I can get around this limitation in SSRS ?

Thanks in advance!
