[TYPO3-ttnews] Distribute images throughout article text

[Trent Stromkins]

Thank You!!!!

This worked great for me. I was having issues with the timtab blog ext 
/ RTE ttnews, as when I would add images to my post via the image 
button, after save, they would be stripped from the code. I can not 
thank you enough.

Now for my next challenge, making the news display the whole post in 
the news list, instead of just a few lines. None the less, I am a happy 
man today. :)
