Woo hoo!! Please keep those donations coming in, folks. [FReepathon XXXIX]

Woo hoo!! Please keep those donations coming in, folks. We need your continuing support to keep FR going strong.

We are uniting now behind our candidate and we will march on to defeat the godless American-hating Marxist Democrats in November. Not doing so would mean surrendering our freedom forevermore to the forces of evil. This will not happen on our watch!!

Less than one year left until our current long national nightmare is over!! January 20, 2017 can't get here soon enough.

And it's now more important than ever that we keep our internet communications channel well funded and in fighting trim!!

FR is funded solely by contributions made by the liberty loving patriots who enjoy and use it.

No commercial ads. No annoying pop-ups. No ad tracking. No mail campaigns. No spam.

We are self-funded, fiercely independent and enjoy our freedom to speak plainly in the support of God, family, country, liberty!!

Every donation counts no matter how big or small. If you can donate $5, $10, $20, $100 or more, it would be greatly appreciated.

Your loyal support makes Free Republic possible and your continuing participation makes FR the number one pro-life, pro-family, pro-small government, pro-defense conservative forum on the Net!!

And we're going to need FR now more than ever to combat the current crop of Marxists and progressives who have infested our government and public institutions and who are dead set on destroying the final remnants of our cherished constitution and our precious God-given liberty!!

Make it a monthly if you can. We have some very generous FReeper sponsors kicking in an extra ten bucks for every new monthly signed up. And we have 44 new monthly donors so far this quarter.

Or send in a hundred dollars or more per quarter and join I_be_tc's growing list of 300 Club patriots. I_be_tc sends in $100 per quarter and challenges 300 others to do the same. And we have 129 donations of $100 or more so far this quarter. If we could get 300 FReepers to send in $100 per quarter, these FReepathons would complete much faster.

Thank You Wonderful, Fabulous FReeper PATRIOT DONORS!!!!

YOUR LOYAL SUPPORT IS TRULY & GREATLY APPRECIATED!

THANK YOU SO MUCH,

ARKANSAS, CANADA, GEORGIA, NEW YORK, PENNSYLVANIA & TEXAS

THANK YOU SO MUCH, AGAIN, FReeper PATRIOT DONORS!!!

2016 Sandbox

How to add images to your post:

<img src=""></img>
The img tags tell the browser to find and insert a picture.

THIS CAN ONLY BE DONE FOR IMAGES THAT ARE LOCATED ON THE INTERNET. YOU CANNOT POST A PICTURE THAT IS ON YOUR OWN COMPUTER!!

These tags insert this wonderful image from Free Republic's website:
<img src="http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/thumb/b/ba/Free_Republic_logo.jpg/200px-Free_Republic_logo.jpg" "height=218" "width=285"></img>

You need to know the URL of the picture to do this. You can see the picture's URL when you put your cursor on the picture and right click the mouse.

You see a small box with "properties" at the bottom. Left click on "properties" and you get a dialog box with the image URL and dimensions.

It says Address: next to the URL, with (URL) underneath. Copy the URL and paste it after your img src= tag. Make sure you get all of the URL for the picture. There isn't a lot of space for the URL and sometimes they are very long.

The image Size and Dimensions are beneath the URL. Free Republic allocates memory for each image, and if it doesn't know the dimensions of the image, it will allocate more memory than needed. It tells you the width, then the height of the picture.

This is called a hotlink. The picture is actually on another computer, but we see it here. This causes the other computer to use it's memory and machinery to provide the image.

Some sites prevent it, or object to it. You can't hotlink an image from any of Yahoo's GeoCities pages, for example. Yahoo prevents it.

Use the "width" and/or "height" parameters to change the size of the picture you have linked to. For instance:

<img src="http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/thumb/b/ba/Free_Republic_logo.jpg/200px-Free_Republic_logo.jpg" "width=570"></img> gives us the same image, but in a different scale:

Note that I only used the width parameter in this link. HTML will automatically scale the height parameter to avoid stretching the image. The height parameter works the same way. You do not need both parameters unless you want to alter the dimensions of the picture you are posting

Do Not Cut And Paste List.
Some websites have forbidden us to copy and paste their material, including images.

There have been lawsuits over this. The FR software will mostly prevent you from using the material that has been blocked, but not always. There are also some image sources that are not allowed on the list. Please don't use them. Lawsuits suck.
