Can Someone Help Me With HTML Picture Post?

[My Favorite Headache]

Can someone help me out in my HTML here. I am trying to post an image. How do I do it here? If you can send it to me here in this thread or in freepmail asap I appreciate it. Thanks.

[paul544]

post like the following: < img src="enter the address of the photo here" >

[Brownie74]

Give me the complete URL of the image.

[SunnyUsa]

just put the url in between the code paul554 just posted, you should "see" the picture in the preview.

To get the right url you need to click you mouse over the image and select properties....copy and paste the code you get, that's your url

[paul544]

For example: < img src="http://www.lucianne.com/9-13-01.jpg">
gets you this

[JudyB1938]

If it's on your hard drive, it won't work. It has to be uploaded to the web somewhere. However, sites like Angelfire, etc., won't allow you to put them here.

[SunnyUsa]

BOLD off

that's RIGHT CLICK your mouse over the image, select properties and your image url will show.

OPH, while you're at it, could you help me with something? I recently joined the Photopoint website and have been trying to figure it out. I mean, I downloaded a picture into my account just to try it out, but the pic was not automatically converted to .gif or .jpg. How do I make my pics .gif or .jpg files?

Hell, the reason I joined Photopoint was because I had a bunch of pics on my hard drive that were not properly formated and just figured that Photopoint automatically formated them for me.

[paul544]

Yeah, if you need to get the URL or "address" of the photo, you have to right click on the pic and then go to Properties. That should give the address. Simply copy and paste that address in the body of the tag I showed you.

MFH,

A little additional info:

If your pic is on the web then just right-click on it open it in a new window and select and copy the "Location" info (http:// ...) and paste as noted in between the quotes.

< img src="http://www.theplace.com/image.jpg" >

If you have a pic you wish to post - not already on the net:

You have to transfer your pic to a server "on" the net. Most web accounts give you 5MB+ of space on the server for your web page.

Your web page address is likely: http://www.your-isp.com~yourusername/

The tilde "~" is likely to the left of the "1" key and above the Tab key.

The best program to transfer files to the server would be WS-FTP.

Freepmail me if you want to post your own stuff.

G-d Bless America.

Also look for the HTML sandbox at FR.

[Merovingian]

You can rename your file...Just put .jpg ..It will convert automatically.

[oldvike]

Thanks, I tried that, but it did not work. Here's the Photopoint file I created. http://albums.photopoint.com/j/View?u=1778348&a=13753158&p=54105765&Sequence=0

What am I doing wrong?

Are you getting a "Sorry" message from Photopoint or just nothing at all.

[oldvike]

Here's what I get.....

Thanks for your help guys, I think maybe I'll try Angelfire. BTW, what hosting site do ya'll use? Have you created your own web sites?

[Force12]

Thanks for posting the question Headache. I needed some educating as well.

[spiker]

Doesn't it warm your heart to see a picture of people having a great time at the firing range?

[E. Pluribus Unum]

That does look like fun!

[mykdsmom]

I found this.

[mykdsmom]

What do you think of this for a target?

My husband is REALLY whining about wanting to SHOOT something.

I thought this was an entirely appropriate request so I helped him out by pasting this into Microsoft Publisher and converting it to poster size. He gets to go shooting this weekend YEEHAW!

I may just go along, my finger's getting itchy too.

Hey guys, I figured it out. I ended up using Yahoo's geocities and it works great. Photopoint just didn't work for some reason. Geocities was much easier. Here's the pic I was wanting to post.

[oldvike]

Damnit, it worked earlier. crap.

[Merovingian]

Damnit, it worked earlier. crap.

oldvike, what format are your pics in? In ther words : _.xxx What are the 3 x's?? I use Photopoint without any problem.

[Musket]

Your code looks like you're only posting the file name, you must post the entire address of the pic, you know "http://www.a3ba159c37f78.htm#26" although I tried looking at that address and nothing shows up so you've got more problems than you realize. Go here HTML BOOTCAMP

God Bless!

[michigander]

Can't get your photos to load from your Geocities account?

[Tunehead54]

MFH - You've got freepmail.

I signed up at Yahoo - took about 5 minutes and the posting is easy!

[mykdsmom]

LOL after tomorrow he won't have a nose, just a great big old hole.

I found this on FR this am and like this one much better.

I've requested one for my refrigerator with a big hole in the forehead.

Looking at that fugly mug for a few weeks will do wonders for my diet.

MKM

[Geezerette]

LOL! Good one!

I was referring to your post #24 a few posts back. There is a black "thing" on his nose. Kinda/sorta like what I expected bubba klinton's face to look like when his nose falls off from all that white powder he likes to sniff!

[oldvike]

Booooyaaaa, got my site up and running. I no longer have to rip people off to post pics. LOL

[mykdsmom]

Looks to me like the artist is trying to make his head look like a skull underneath.
