LOL!
Still not getting it. Failblog.org provides the entire address for you to just copy and paste. I can handle that. It’s the pictures on other sites that are giving me trouble...you know, where you have to right click on the photo, left-click on “properties” and then copy the URL provided there. The problem is that the address there is really short compared to the ones on failblog, so I’m not sure where to find the rest of the address. It’s my understanding that they are supposed to be quite long.
Thanks for your help, though. It was a heroic effort!! I’ve never been accused of being computer literate. Lol.
I’ll get my FReeper brother to show me hand-over-hand what to do. Apparently that’s what it’s going to take for me to “get” it!
Thanks again!

Some things have changed. Right-Click and choose “copy link address” see if that helps.
Isn’t is a scream?! Scroll up to posts 174 and 175 and you’ll see that I got the pictures there, but that was using the super-easy copy and paste method using the URL that failblog.org provided. I didn’t have to add <img scr or any of that.
The picture I can’t get to show up is just some random Michelle Obama/Aunt Esther photo.

I right clicked and “copy link address” isn’t one of the options. I clicked “copy”, though, but the pic wouldn’t transfer. Oh well, I’ll try again some other time. Thanks anyway. I’ll send you an image some day when I get this stuff all figured out. Not sure what yet, but I promise you it’ll be a good one! :o)
Copy image address.... My bad
That wasn’t one of the options, either. The only thing that came close was plain ol’ “copy,” and that didn’t work. I’m telling ya, it’s me! :)

I take it this pic isn’t at a web site.
The link in the above post goes to the page; scroll down to the “collage” of Obama/Aunt Esther pictures. That’s the image I was trying to practice with.
Yes! That’s the one!! How did you do that???
Check your mailbox
Okay, I right-clicked and copied the address, but this is all I got:

That’s the same as what I was getting before. I can’t figure out how to get ahold of the rest of the address. There has to be more.
I think I’m giving up for tonight, but will try again tomorrow. Thanks for all your help...I’ll get there eventually (I hope!).
