Embedding pictures with links

[JonRB]

Currently we have the following options for creating URLS

[url]text|url[/url]      hyperlink
[mail]text|email[/mail]  hyperlink
[pic]url[/pic]     Embed picture

Flickr Community Guidelines specify that if you post a Flickr photo on an external website, the photo must link back to its photo page but we don't have that facility at the moment unless you add a separate link underneath.

It would be a useful (and consistent) extension to have

Edit: Ok, and I'd like to raise a bug report on using a second code block in a post.

I have added this to the bugs/dev list (the pic bit that is, the double code block is already on the list)

We are working on the specifications for the improved code for the pages at the moment and will hopefully have a better parser by the end of this month.

Is a bit cumbersome, but should work in the mean time.
