The workaround for embedding links to images is to stick a fake CGI form-submission doohicky on the end of your link, following a question mark. Most web servers will ignore them for non-form web pages, but DCF's perl code won't recognize the link as a link to an image.

Thus, for instance, http://www.eyrie-productions.com/UF/FI/SOS/GFX/pm-corwin-apotheosis.jpg?x is a link to the newly-colored picture of Corwin.
