I saw your reply about posting pictures

In case you still want to know about posting a picture, this is how I do it:

Since the picture must reside at a website, you would go to a free picture hosting site like this one...

http://tinypic.com/

Sign up for an account. Then you upload the picture from your computer to your page at the website. Click on "Choose File" on your page there...this opens a list of photos on your computer where you highlight the name of the picture file you want and then click "Choose" at the bottom.

This takes you back to your page at the website where you click on the "Upload" button. The picture is then copied to the website. Look for the title "Grab Your Code" on the page, and highlight and copy the code in the box where it says "HTML for Websites".

I don't know much about HTML code, but usually I enter any textual reply first (in the FR reply box), then type < p > to add a blank line between the text and the picture (eliminate the spaces between the p and the symbols though).

Then copy the "HTML for Websites" code from TinyPic into the reply box. When you click on "Preview" you should see the picture. I'll try one here...

[Normally when one is typing a reply in the "Your Reply" box, "what you see is what you get", i.e. you can use "Enter" to create blank lines between paragraphs of text. However, if any HTML code is introduced into the reply box, then you must use the < p > symbol (no spaces) at the end of each paragraph, or it will all run together.]

One of the best tutorials for beginners is Dave's HTML Tutor. He also has CSS (Cascading Style Sheets) and Web Design tutorials for beginners. If you want something much more in depth, there are some great tutorials and references at W3Schools.com that allow you to practice your code and immediately see the results. Just remember, however, that not all HTML commands are supported here on FR.

#38 FFRAF (Florida Free Republic Air Force) Sorry I couldn't get a better picture. "The Florida division of the Free Republic Air Force (FFRAF) launched a mission to salute the arrival of the TEA Party Express to Orlando Florida Thursday night. A USA flag was displayed at the start and end of each message. Here were the messages: "FLORIDA WELCOMES THE TEA PARTY EXPRESS!" - "GOD BLESS AMERICA, THANK YOU VETERANS!" ( Fire works accompanying sign) - "PINK SLIP CONGRESS IN 2010!" - "WE WILL NOT BE EUROPE OR CUBA!" - "WE HAVE A CONSTITUTION, OBEY IT!" Then: "REPLACE CONGRESS IN 2010!" This was the big send off as the crowd heads home after 8PM.

PS The radio station WDBO has lots more pictures at its web site, too. It has 24 pictures including ones of the finale on stage. HERE
