 * Hi there,
 * I’ve just recently installed a movie database plug-in ([http://www.mlabs.info/maribol-imdb/](http://www.mlabs.info/maribol-imdb/)),
   which pulls through movie information (title, synopsis, year etc.) from IMDB 
   into my blog post.
 * It provides it in handy BBCODE ([imdb:title],[imdb:year],[imdb:description] etc)
   which I simply insert into my blogpost HTML.
 * This worked great, however, I’m having trouble uploading the poster image. When
   I insert the poster BBCODE – [imdb:poster] – into my HTML, it only brings up 
   the URL of the image when posted.
 * Is there any way of making the HTML unpack the URL and then posting that image?
   Perhaps using a php code?
 * Sorry, I’m a bit of a n00b!
 * Many thanks!
 * Rich
