How do you post a picture? I have a really neat photo of the Tora Tora Tora zeros in formation.

How do you post a picture?

Nully's Quick FR HTML Guide:

Basic formatting:

Line break <br>
Paragraph break <p>
<blockquote>

Indented paragraphs

</blockquote>
<u> underline </u>
<i> italics </i>
<b> bold </b>
<s> strikethrough </s>
<tt> typewriter text </tt>
<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:

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:

I like to use THIS SITE for basic things like posting images and links. You simply paste the link or image location, and it creates the HTML codes for you which you can then copy and add to your post. I used to imbed the link to the site in this post.

#22 Add < in front and a > at the end. Save your photo to your desktop then open and see the dimensions. Reduce them if too big. I use a calculator to divide by 2 or 3 then if need be I round up the number. Preview before posting. Also use br with the < in and > at the end to separate text and or image.
