One addition to posting pictures: When specifying width, you can specify percentage of browser window width, which you demonstrate, which is very handy because the image rescales as you rescale your browser window.

Or you can specify number of pixels, which keeps the image a certain size, which is handy when posting memes with writing that must be read.

Using your example, <img src="https://a57.foxnews.com/a57.foxnews.com/static.foxnews.com/foxnews.com/content/uploads/2020/01/640/320/1862/1048/MountRushmore1.jpg?ve=1&tl=1?ve=1&tl=1" width="400"> will yield an image 400 pixels wide:

Likewise, you can specify a fixed height by substituting "height" for "width" in the above example, which is handy if you want to put two pics side-by-side and have both of them the same height:

<img src="https://a57.foxnews.com/a57.foxnews.com/static.foxnews.com/foxnews.com/content/uploads/2020/01/640/320/1862/1048/MountRushmore1.jpg?ve=1&tl=1?ve=1&tl=1" height="200"> <img src="https://media.giphy.com/media/ZBVhKIDgts1eHYdT7u/giphy.gif" height="200"gt; yields:

Thanks for adding that. Posting pictures is so intimidating that I made it as simple and brief as I could.

Let me preface this by saying, yes I’m logged in.

I got a new iPad. When I manually type in <img src=“ for a picture and then paste the URL as I’ve always done, when I preview I get a small box with a question mark.

HOWEVER, if I copy THE SAME img src SYNTAX from a prior post, it works perfectly.

The ONLY thing I can guess is causing the trouble, is that when I type img it shows up with an underline; I guess that means it’s considered a typo by my new iPad.

I don’t want to constantly copy and past html code from my notepad. Anybody have any ideas how to fix this problem? Thank you.
