https://forums.dolphin-emu.org/Thread-dolphin-progress-report?pid=460377#pid460377 starts with
https://dolphin-emu.org/m/user/blog/progress-report/2017-november/progressreportheader-november2017mini.jpg which gets shortened to
https://dolphin-emu.org/m/user/blog/progress-report/2017-november/progressreportheader-november2017m in the notification email, which is a broken URL link.
I don't get any additional information in the message excerpt (I have to click the link to go to the topic to see what was posted). It would be nice if notification emails could be improved to show more in the message excerpt.

The limit seems to be 100 characters. I don't think MyBB lets me change this without diving into the actual code for the forums, unfortunately. It'd be a simple fix, but a better option for the Progress Report thread would be for us to use shorter links. Or put some text before the image.

Yeah, I figured this was the case. Maybe put the image at the bottom of the Progress Report posts? Or did you try this and it looked funny? ;)
