Putting links in graphics?

[BillTre]

Is there an easy way to put links into graphics (vector drawings), such as for InSights articles of forum posts?
For example, if I have some text in a drawing, can I link it to an article somewhere, either from the text or on someway putting a transpartent button over it?

<a href="url"><img src="url" /></a>

Like that?

Links that are limited to specific areas of the image? That needs more html features than forums allow.

The feature you refer to exists in HTML and is called an image map ("map", see below). It allows an image to have clickable areas.

I don't know any fora that support it.

<img src="workplace.jpg" alt="Workplace" usemap="#workmap">

<map name="workmap">
  <area shape="rect" coords="34,44,270,350" alt="Computer" href="computer.htm">
  <area shape="rect" coords="290,172,333,250" alt="Phone" href="phone.htm">
  <area shape="circle" coords="337,300,44" alt="Coffee" href="coffee.htm">
</map>

I was afraid of that, but thought it worth checking.
Thanks guys!

Sounds like you're thinking of an image map and yeah, the forum editor doesn't accept it, but the Insights editor should.
