George Posted March 20, 2003 Posted March 20, 2003 I can't load / include a picture in a post. I try to use the IMG but... without success. Can someone explain to this dummy newby (me!) how to do it? (step by step please... in plain english!) Thanks! Quote
Lianna Posted March 20, 2003 Posted March 20, 2003 Using the IMG tag on the forum hotlinks an image from a URL. Example: [ IMG ]http : // mysite.com / mypic.jpg [ / IMG] To find the path to an image, right click the image and select Properties. Highlight the URL and CTRL-C to copy it. Now, this HOTLINKS the image. Make sure that if you hotlink you have permission to do so. Lianna Quote

Lianna Posted March 20, 2003 Posted March 20, 2003 George, You have to place the entire url into the IMG tag, like: http:// ****/images/imagename.jpg Lianna Quote

Lianna Posted March 20, 2003 Posted March 20, 2003 Aaah. Rename your image to exclude the exclamation point. See if that works. Lianna Quote

TCH-Don Posted March 20, 2003 Posted March 20, 2003 You are welcome George! And I know I say this a lot, but they are Adorable! Are the cats yours? Quote
George Posted March 20, 2003 Author Posted March 20, 2003 No, I'm not so lucky... I have in the past a siames cat... a real lady with a fantastic real caring behaviour... (Not so usual in cats). She can walk in the streets with me like a friend or a dog... But, after I had to take a many years long work voyage, I left her with my daughter and my son... and one day... she dissapear... After many years we still miss her very much. And the girafa mother and son are a prouve that love is every where... we the human are the ones that have lost our way... Quote
