Can Imgur albums be embedded in comments and/or forum posts?

I've just tried a couple of comments for this test album I made using the code Imgur gave, but it never worked. Most times, the comment was blank (even after refreshing), but one time it just hyperlinked to the album URL with "Testing" (the album title).

I'm going to paste the code below these few sentences. It may or may not work here, but it doesn't appear to work in comments either way. Here's a Pastebin link to the code text. Does anyone know why it doesn't work in comments and forum posts (if it doesn't show up now) or how I can embed albums another way?

Testing

Okay, this time it links to a random image page with the same URL code, but not my album.

The album:

This is bizarre.

Imgur banned 3rd party hosting a while back, so that might be the cause of the issue. If it's not that, KYM may not support one of the Textile codes, like <script> There's still issues with the <video> code, despite it supposedly being supported.

If that's the case, why do they still provide embed codes?
