  When I go into image url and post a website I’d like to make the image clickable to, it posts my wordpress address and then the url that I want.

  So if I want an image to click to google.com

  It will show go to http://www.vcauto.wordpress.com/www.google.com once I click on the image and say the page cannot be found?

  The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

  That is because you are putting in the link incorrectly. Wp.com puts “http://” in the link box. If you put it in as well, then you get the result above. Always clear out the entire link box before putting in the link, and look to make sure you didn’t just put http://www.google.com (which is not the correct address anyway) in there. The correct address is http://google.com.
