I believe Teleport is disallowed in the interior of the shield--- seem to recall that being an issue on a TF I ran once (wasted my team recall)... I assume this is primarily to help the hallways be the gauntlet they were meant to be, rather than on a TF, have one member TP past everything and recall the rest of the team.|

So if that is the case, shield charge (and lightning rod) would also likely be disabled, seeing as they are basically short range teleports (with a damage component).

You cannot use any teleport powers inside the shielded area.. It works only in the doorways on the East and West side.
On a side note.. I just went to The Chantry, and the force field around it seems to be bugged. Instead of being a transparent wall, it's flat white on the outside. It's not transparent from the inside either, but at least that has some type of white graphic on it.
I tried disabling Ultra mode, trying different world detail and Texture Quality to low to see if ANY option would fix it, but I couldn't find any reason for it. Is it just me?
I'm headed to The Storm Palace to see if that looks the same.
Edit:
And it does. Even logging into the zone I can see the ugly, plain/blank texture surrounding the structure... and that's from about 2 miles away. At least close up it does seem a it transparent, but it doesn't look the way I remember it. It certainly doesn't look intentional... then again, it seems some people have trouble finding the way in, so maybe it was.. I dunno.
Well, now you've got me curious. Heading there now to see what I can see.

Outside of Chantry
Inside of Chantry
2 miles from Storm Palace
Closer to Storm Palace
I hope it's not on my end. I'm running a "Verify Files", just in case. lol
If it matters for comparison, I'm using an ATI Radeon 5770 with full Ultra options and /visscale 4 (400% world detail), and changing the options doesn't make any differences.
Edit: The "Verify Files" didn't do anything to help either.
That's EXACTLY what I just saw...
^Outside, just white, not transparent at all (since you can see it through my transparent self^
^From inside, White, with what appears to be the shield texture on top. Semi-transparent, as you can clearly see through me to the outside (*cough* erm, yes, I did purposefully position it so the one-eyed monster was at my crotch. 
)^
EDIT: How'd you get your pics thumbnailed? [solved]

I am seeing the same on an Nvidia card.

Yep. Looking at it closer, the white texture and the transparent force field texture seem to be about a foot away from each other. That's why you can only see it from the inside. You can actually pass through the force field texture, but not the solid white wall.|

All you have to do is add "th_" to the beginning of the filename to post the thumbnail. In my post, I simply used URL code to link to the fullsize image when clicked on.
For example, the code I used for the first picture above was:
Outside of Chantry
[img]http://i301.photobucket.com/albums/nn54/mateojh/th_ChantryOut100619.jpg[/img]
Edit:
Alternately, if you are on your Album page, click the "Share" option above the picture you want to use. It gives you a list of options, one of them being "IMG for bulletin boards & forums", and "Clickable thumbnail".
But that links the user to the picture in your album, not the direct fullsize image. For example, it gave me this code:
[IMG]http://i301.photobucket.com/albums/nn54/mateojh/th_ChantryOut100619.jpg[/IMG]
Actual result is:
I prefer to make the links manually. It's fairly easy. I also like to add the caption because users that have forum images turned off wont have any text to click on to go to the fullsize image unless you add words to the link. They only get a link to the thumbnail picture itself.
I hope that helps.
Aah, I see; thought it involved resizing the pic by selecting and dragging the corners, but that didn't seem to stick. Looks much friendlier now, thanks!

Yeah, I tried messing around with the forum's Advanced image editing stuff before too.. and never got most of it to function the way I thought it would either. lol
Sorta lame, tbh. Both the attack power bug/nerf/whatever there AND the ugly walls now.

Don't know if i's till the case, but I couldn't shield charge inside the 1st floor of the city hall building when the Khan TF came out.
The more people I meet, the more I'm beginning to root for the zombies.
