Posting an image:

General:
<img src="[web server location]">

You can't just snag a favorite picture from a desktop folder...it has to be hosted someplace on line to be posted here.

Best bet is to save the image to an image hosting service, I use Photobucket. In Firefox right click and select "Copy image location", in Safari right click and select "Open image in new tab" and copy the address in the address bar. Other browsers have similar tricks.

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">

Cynwoody adds this tip:

You can pre-cue a YouTube video by adding a t parameter to the link. Like so:
<a href=https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=f66kEastC58&t=35s>Bill Ayers on Obama> Posts:
Bill Ayers on Obama>
