Using some fancy dynamic third party image generator might have been funny in the past but 1) huge security risk, and 2) image rot. Really bad idea, much better to use static and safe image.

As per the answers to https://meta.stackexchange.com/q/120415, HTML comments are NOT among the allowed HTML tags. They only appear to work by accident, as they are removed just like any other unrecognized tags.
