Wordpress image issue - seems crazy

    My wordpress banner images won't link to a URL but instead link to a larger image of the jpeg.
    Here is the code I am using:
    <p style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://forms.invast.com.au/gold-report-2014" target="_blank"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-1469" alt="Gold-Report-free-download-research-banner-640x67" src="http://blog.invast.com.au/wp-conten...port-free-download-research-banner-640x67.jpg" width="640" height="67" /></a></p>

    The actual page can be viewed here: http://blog.invast.com.au/news/will-gold-surge-plummet-2014-new-gold-report-available-now
    The banner image is under the youtube video.

    What am I missing here? The code looks fine. Is this just a wordpress thing?
    Thanks
    Ash.

    I guess it's this script:
    <script type='text/javascript' src='http://blog.invast.com.au/wp-content/themes/starkers-responsive/js/site.js?ver=3.7.3'></script>
    HTML:
    One thing it does is changing every <img> under your <article> to be lightbox's thumbs.

    Ok, so basically there is some auto script that converts every image to have a lightbox thumb when clicked? Is that right?
    Is it just a matter of finding that script and then getting it removed or replaced?
    Thanks for your help hdewantara. I really appreciate it.
    Ash.

    Hi Ash.

    Yes, right.
    I'm no WP expert though, so I can't be sure whether removing/ correcting it is the way to go. Another way without changing that script is perhaps by having your banner image stored as background:
    <p><a style="width:640px; height:67px; margin:auto; display:block; background-image:url(http://blog.invast.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2014/04/Gold-Report-free-download-research-banner-640x67.jpg);" href="http://forms.invast.com.au/gold-report-2014" target="_blank"></a></p>
