image picklist formula returns value, not image

The fromula seems to be working, but its displaying
"<img src="/servlet/servlet.FileDownload?file=0151600000QNE8V" alt=" " border="0"/>"
Instead of the image. Seems like a need URL reference?

This is the code on VF page to display picklist 
<apex:outputField value="{!customo__c.Flag__c}" >    
    <apex:inlineEditSupport showOnEdit="saveButton, cancelButton" 
    hideOnEdit="editButton" event="ondblclick" 
    changedStyleClass="myBoldClass" resetFunction="resetInlineEdit"/>
</apex:outputField>
and field Flag__c is picklist "Green" , "Red"

This is the code on VF page to display image 
{!customo__c.Flag_formula__c}
This is the fromula (text) for field "Flag_formula__c" 
IMAGE(
CASE(Flag__c,
"Green","/servlet/servlet.FileDownload?file=0151600000QNE8V",
"Red","/servlet/servlet.FileDownload?file=0151600000QNE8f",
""),"")
The images URL work

Ok Now I understand what is the issue. You just need to add an IF Condition to your formula to show image only if Flag is not blank.
  
IF( TEXT(Flag__c) == '', 'No Image', 
    IMAGE( CASE(Flag__c, 
           "Green","/servlet/servlet.FileDownload?file=0151600000QNE8V", 
           "Red","/servlet/servlet.FileDownload?file=0151600000QNE8f", 
           "Green Flag"),"Red Flag") 
   )

Right now if have used text no image if Flag is ablank you could change according to your need.

This will fix your issue.

Thanks

This is the code on VF page to display image 
<apex:image url="{!StrategicSales__c.Flag_formula__c}" />
Gettting a broken image icon. HTML is rendering the image URL as 
https://c.na23.visual.force.com/apex/%3Cimg+src=%22/servlet/servlet.FileDownload?file=0151600000QNE8V%22%20alt=%22Red%20Flag%22%20border=%220%22/%3E
Anyone?

Hi Andyux,

I order to show the Image on Visualforce Page you have to use outbput:Field like you have used for Flag__c field like below.
  
<apex:outputField value="{!customo__c.Flag_formula__c}">
This will fix your issue.

Let me know if you still face issue.

Thanks

I thought i tried that, thanks! red and green flags show - but when picklist is --none-- nothing selected, i get a broken image icon. 
IMAGE(
CASE(Flag__c,
"Green","/servlet/servlet.FileDownload?file=0151600000QNE8V",
"Red","/servlet/servlet.FileDownload?file=0151600000QNE8f",
"Green Flag"),"Red Flag")
How do i specify for no valuse selected, do nothing? I tried null, else?
