Be sure to get to the "Return to Article" screen or your bookmark won't be saved.
To repost a pic already on the Internet, such as I did with Hastert's book:
1. Right click on photo
2. Select Properties
3. Copy the "Address URL"
4. Go to Free Republic POST REPLY screen
5. Type the following but omit the spaces after the < and before the > ; "img src" = image source (pnemonic to help remember; retain the space between "img" and "src":
< img src="PASTEyourURLhere"> It will look something like this:
< img src="
http://www.asianbizguide.com/website/j-r/o/olympicflower/rose.jpg" >
5. Preview
If it doesn't show up check each factor, such as correct typing, inclusion of the quotation marks, no spaces after / before carats, etc.
Some photos are blocked from being reposted. Most aren't. If you get The Dreaded Red X in a square box, either the HTML is wrong or the photo can't be reposted (linked) to another site. Give it a try!
There is a different procedure to post photos NOT already on the Internet, and it requires that you have a space to save it onto the Internet first before reposting it to FR. As you probably know, photos stored on a personal computer cannot be linked directly to the Internet for viewing by using the above procedure.
You'll get this memorized in no time. Have fun!
