Look for:

(\<img\s+src\s*\=\")([^\"]+)(\"\/?\>)

and replace with:

<a href="$2">$1$2$3</a>

If you want to parse HTML output for this you could do (untested)

$out = preg_replace( '/<img .*src="([^"]+)".*>/', '<a href="$1">$0</a>', $input );

So basically you want to add a base_url to your img src right? If you got an array of links(let's say $image_links) you'd do it like that:

foreach($image_links as $image_link) {
    echo '<a href="'.$base_url.'/'.$image_link.'"'.'><img src="'.$base_url.'/'.$image_link.'"'.'></a>';
}

Do you really need to do this in php? I think it will be simplier to just use jquery to attach a click event to the images to redirect the browser to the image url when the user clicks the image. It should only take less then 10 lines of javascript totdo so.
