Click on the "Members Area/Help" at the top of the screen.  Then scroll down to the "HTML" /pip/html.htm   \tutorial.  This will give you some basic knowledge on graphics.

And if you need a place to put your pictures on the web, feel free to use the shoebox on my website.

You even may use my pics too

Titia- Thank you kindly! I still have this one problem, how do I accomplish inserting the pictures. I am a new pc user and I do understand the codes but where are they found and do I copy, paste or what?? You can laugh if you want too.....hehehe  

Thank you again,
Marie

you first should load a picture onto the web..preferably your own site or a storage site. Pictures should not be loaded from others sites unless they allow it. After you have it stored somewhere online..and if you don't know how to do that, I would be happy to  show you step by step how or try explaining it to you...then you use this language to post it with a poem..

img src="http://www._______________.jpg"

that line should have brackets in front of img and in back of jpg"..<_________> with everything else in between about the url where the picture is stored.
the blank is the information telling the forum where the picture is stored.


Whenever you want to know how someone on here did something with their poem, all you have to do is click on the symbol next to the
yellow email envelope..which says edit or delete and it will show you how they did it..what html language was used.

I hope that helps you a little...but if you ever use Geocities to set up a website..they don't let you use their site to show their images unless you do a  trick of changing the  language...
