Display an image in a Fusiontable, which is stored in Google Drive

I uploaded some images to a public folder in my Google Drive and would like to display them in a Fusiontable. I defined a column "link" as "Four line image" and store a link to the image there in the following format (provided by @Mori)

https://drive.google.com/uc?id=FILE-ID

example: https://drive.google.com/uc?id=0B6qZJQj7B-4ERS1KZ3p2SE9IbkU

I also tried the following format (provided by @niutech)

http://googledrive.com/host/<folderID>/<filename>

Unfortunately the result looks like this (screenshot 1) enter image description here

Only after right click onto the image placeholder and selecting "View image", the image is displayed in a separate window. Now going back to the fusiontable the image appears correctly, see screenshot 2:

What could be the solution to this problem? I would like to see all images without need to right click first. Btw, I'm using Firefox.

EDIT: I now set the Fusiontable to "visible to anybody with link" and tested with Google Chrome and Opera. There it works fine. Firefox still does not work. Seems to be a browser issue...
