BTW, can any freepers tell me how to post pictures on here, I seem to be having problems

That, and soooo much more:

Nully's Quick FR HTML Guide:

(In all cases remove the space between the < and the following character)

Basic formatting:

Line break < br>
Paragraph break < p>
< u> underline < /u>
< i> italics < /i>
< b> bold < /b>
< font color=red> Red font < /font>
< blink> blink < /blink> Use blink sparingly. People HATE blink

< font size=1>Smallest FR font< /font> Displays as:
Smallest FR font

< font size=7>Largest FR font< /font> Displays as:
Largest FR font

Or

Step font size up or down with < big>bigger< /big>

and < small>smaller< /small>

"Hidden" text: < font color=white> White font < /font>
Drag cursor over blank area to highlight to read...

Posting a link:

General:
< a href=[web address]>[title]< /a>
Example:
This: < a href=http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/1179145/posts>Iran starts atom tests in defiance of EU deal< /a>

Clarity is needed - you can't just snag a favorite picture from a desktop folder...it has to be hosted someplace to be transferrable to our posts. ~ ErnBatavia

Example:
This: < img src="http://www.notablebiographies.com/images/uewb_09_img0611.jpg">

Tip: control the size with "height=nnn" like so:

This: < img height= 200 src="http://www.notablebiographies.com/images/uewb_09_img0611.jpg">

Thank you so much for that info. I didn’t realize there was so much to do to add a pic, I was trying to drag and drop it, lol. I guess you can tell I am a newbie at this. :)

Post a picture = <img src="URL of photo">

- - - - - - - -

To post an html code like I did at the beginning of this post (without having to add spaces to be removed later), use &lt; instead of <, and &gt; instead of >.

&lt; img src="http://i35.tinypic.com/fuvxp4.jpg"&gt; will print
<img src="http://i35.tinypic.com/fuvxp4.jpg">.

&lt;blockquote&gt; will print <blockquote> (which indents the paragraph)
&lt;/blockquote&gt; will print </blockquote>
