I have some articles showing the my front page. In those previews there is an image from the article. In the article those images have links to other parts of the site, but in the preview clicking on the image takes you to the article proper.

Is there a way to make it so that the preview of the article retains the image's link?

I have the same question, I have images that I need to be linked to external sites....

Along the same lines, what would be the recommended method for controlling the choice, size, etc of article thumbnail image as well as the preview text that would appear in a list of articles?
Thank you

The work around I've found is posting the image to a site like ImageShack.us, and then linking to that. You can then add a link to the image. Works for me.

I'd also like to know the answer to the original question.

How could you make any part of an article preview link to an alternative site.

It is not a VB3 engine, just a parsed copy!
