Thanks for that.

I just want to clear up any confusion out there, the naked Obi-Wan I was referring to was NOT old and crusty Obi-Wan (Alec Guinness), it was young and hot Obi-Wan (Ewan Mcgregor).

I can't find the picture anyway, dammit....

Depending on how graphic, we might still have to remove the link. Jim strives to keep this place somewhat family oriented.

I'd like to add a comment for newbies.

If you are like me and not a hardcore Freeper, by which I mean you come here well less than an hour a day, anything that is breaking news WILL already be posted. Any article from a major newspaper WILL already be posted by someone who takes care of it on a daily basis. If you can't find it, that's because YOU can't find it.

Learn from me and avoid the embarassing that-wasn't breaking-news/already-posted pile on. :)

You can see the image, which is good. I'd suggest closing the previous paragraph prior to starting the image tag. This will let the photo show up on the left of the screen instead of showing up at the end of the sentence.

Excellent first effort.

Example A(photograph at end of sentence)

Example B(photograph after closing previous paragraph

See how much better the second image looks?

Let me guess---you're in advertising? :)

Thanks for the tip. After 5 decades of surpassing literacy I now face half an hour trying to learn how to close a paragraph.

It's simple. I'll show you right now. Use this code:

Type your picture text<P>

<img src="Insert your picture url here"><P>

Will look like this:
