VB 3.7 beta 5 > img codes

[setishock]

I have turned on the bbcodes for links and img. The problem is when I post a link to a single picture at Flickr or use the URL for the picture in the internal user gallery, the link itself appears in the post. I've added the img codes to the link and reposted but the link then has the img codes on either end.
1> Is there a way to correct the issue with Flickr?
2> Just how do you link directly to a picture in a user gallery? Like use one out of my own gallery to post in the open forum.

BTW photobucket.com does not have this issue. It worked correctly the first time I tried it.
