thumb tacks?
Are they at a web address?
Do you want them posted here?
Photobucket account.
There are others.
Write the address on the envelope, put the pictures inside, put a stamp on it, and put it in a mailbox.
Whole thread on it as above. The problem is you can't post exact html code and have it show up as text unless you disguise it as a .jpg which is more than you want to know.
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.
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 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.
Got to host ‘em before you can post ‘em. IOW you must join a hosting site, like Photobucket, or Flicker. You post your picture there and that site will assign an “address” for it. From there it is simple. The code is:
< img src=”internet address of your picture”>
There is no space between the brackets and the rest of the HTML phrase. I have a space here because otherwise my phrase would disappear. But, when you do it for real — no spaces. There is only one space in the phrase, and that is between the img and the src.
Review it before posting to make sure it works. If you get nothing, or a red x, look over what you have typed to make sure that there are no mistakes.
Create an account on a photo host site like Photobucket and upload your photos. The site will give you the HTML code to link to the photo. Copy and paste this code into your comments. Remember copyright laws. No problem if you took the photos yourself, but you MUST have permission to use any photos taken by someone else or photos you may have downloaded from other websites. It is possible to “hotlink” to photos on other web sites, but this may also be a copyright violation and it steals bandwidth from other sites.

Carefully and with panash
Please note, After typing in the URL, always hit “Preview” before you hit “Post”!
This way you can see if your photo will show up. If you see the photo, then it Post. If you don’t it means you did something wrong in your typing.
We use a Mac and plenty of stamps.
