So to do this on the wiki using dropbox as the web host should be fairly simple (should!). As in moodle you need to put all the files, including the pictures, into dropbox. Then you need to open the hot-potato files and save the .htm files straight into dropbox. You can then put the public links into the i-frame script as before and it seems to work at least here!
I did discover some other things in the process. If you open files in dropbox on the web the images disappear. So my suggestion here is... don't open the files! If you open files containing images in moodle they are fine. From this I assume that if you have a proper web server it wouldn't be a problem.
With that in mind I have worked out a way for it not to matter a great deal. If you are using the images as part of a matching exercise at least (with images for other purposes it would not work so well)
What you need to do is this
When you upload the file into your potato file you simply change the alt text from example.jpg to simply example the if the images disappear for any reason you will be left with the words which will make the matching exercise functional if not quite so pretty.
