For last day or two when I attempt to link images on my own web server I am just getting an IMG tag and nothing else. Here's the end result:

https://www.talkbass.com/http:/passinwind.com/Tech/KL3015LF_vs_3015_infEAR_55Hztuning.PNG

and here's what shows up in the BB Code editor with URL tags wrapped around it: https://www.talkbass.com/http:/passinwind.com/Tech/KL3015LF_vs_3015_infEAR_55Hztuning.PNG

The URL you have wrapped around image tags is not right - it starts out with Link Removed and then /http:/passwinwind.... I'll investigate some more but your example above looks like an incorrect URL...

Right, the link button is appending the TB part, thereby breaking the link.

It's doing that, I think, because you're missing a forward slash after http in your server URL

Code:

should be

That would make sense, thanks. I'll dive into the server config on my side.

Edit: that was an easy fix, my FTP client settings just got tweaked during a recent website update and all I needed to do was add one slash in the prefix for quoting HTTP URLs.
