Do you see an image for post 216? I can see it and also on my home page.However I am posting the image from Yahoo Briefcase and I am not sure if others can see it because the folder is listed as Private and I can't see how to make it sharing.

I'm an old dog who can learn new tricks but only slowly, or with an occasional whack with a newspaper.

Nope... no photo. That one looks like you made a mistake in posting the URL. When you exclude required info, sometimes the freerepublic software reverts to the URL of the thread. In this case, I see a big white box with a little red X — If I right click on it, it says shows a URL of http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/802064/posts?page=219#219 (this thread)

Can you post a link (URL) of the photo you are trying to post? (Or, even the webpage of where the photo is?) Maybe I walk you through it.

Aha! Just read the rest of your post. (sorry about that)

Your computer is probably retrieving the photo from you own hard drive. FR can't do that. It has to be hosted on a website somewhere.

You can sign up at various places that let you upload your photos for free. I use Photobucket.com

Here is a photo to practice with:

What I typed in: <p><img src="http://i64.photobucket.com/albums/h169/ftogyeppf/snoopy-flag-Halfmast-sm.gif">

If you right click on the photo and choose properties, you can see the matchiing URL
