    use this code, just replace linktoimage with a link to the image :P

    <img src="http://linktoimage" />

    - or simply paste the image's URL if you've got the Magic plugin installed.

    - or use the File Upload plugin to add images as attachments.

    File Upload links them as attachments but does nto show the image.

    The image URL method is not suitable for non technical users.

    how is having to use HTML syntax easier than pasting a simple URL?
    <img src="http://linktoimage" />vshttp://linktoimage

    Sorry i was actually implying both html and plain url were not suitable.

    My users are moving over form phpbb and i have a month to fix any bug they might notice before it affects the group for the year.

    @Davidis: Sounds like you need some sort of wysiwyg or markup editor. There are a few floating around in the add-ons that use various wysiwyg javascript editors. I'm also working on an html mark-up add-on that will insert the necessary html for users (but it would still be visible in the edit box).

    What I've got so far is very straight-forward. It just allows users to bold, underline, strikethrough, and then insert URLs and images. It's very subtle, and I think it fits well with the minimalist sensibilities of Vanilla.

    I'm using it on my fansite forums, but you won't be able to see the editor in action without registering.
