The link works just fine, but the image itself doesn't appear in the forum. Nice raincoat though!!

I've never been able to figure out how to do this either :-(

hmmm perhaps it doesnt like flickr, I cannot make that one work either Mason. Try Paul, he seems to be the techy one, plus it is his site after all

@mason

Try using the square brackets instead of the arrow symbols on each side of the "img" tag, I think that's how its done,

<img>http://www.flickr.com/photos/mason_bl/4246857873/</img>


would be...

"["img"]"http://www.flickr.com/photos/mason_bl/4246857873/"["/img"]"

Just remove the quotes!

Ah! solved the problem, there was also an extra "/" at the end of the url that wasn't needed, the link should read like this, again, without the quotes:

"Image"

Great picture by the way!

Hmmm... thats odd! when you copy the link directly into the address bar it goes straight to the picture, but linking to it isn't working? we need a guru!
