Something like [NOPARSE][/NOPARSE]. The ending will be some sort of image format like .jpg, .gif, .png or another one.

You're making a monkey's bottom of it I'm afraid:), looking at where you've tried to do it here.

What you've done there somehow is left out half the address (see the dots when you run the mouse over it) and included www.boards.ie/vbulletin/ at the start. Which means it'll never work.

This is what you posted in the post I've linked to above:
http://www.boards.ie/vbulletin/www.michaelseaver.net/.../jeanbutler1.jpg

See the "www.boards.ie/vbulletin/" bit? That shouldn't be there. See the ... bit (even when you run the mouse over it and check the address that appears at the bottom of your screen)? There's something missing from there. I don't know what the original address was so I can't help you there but that's what you're doing wrong if that helps:)

Now, me, I've always got images turned off so I pretty much never bother embedding them anyway so you're not alone if you just don't bother. Note that I didn't say you'd be in good company, just that you wouldn't be the only one.
