This will not necessarily work every single time, nor will it ONLY work
on images, but I tried -- maybe it can help you. So why don't you test
it out on maybe ten or so different image URLs. If it works, go with
it, but I accept no liability. (Also, this regex has not been optimized
for speed -- sorry, I don't have time to play with it.)
$text = "http://www.domain.com/directory/images/image.jpg";
preg_replace("(http://[^<>\s]+[-a-zA-Z0-9_/.]+\.(gif|jpg|jpeg)$)", "<img
src=\"\1\" />", $text);
