I ma having trouble posting a picture with my poem.

The address of the pic is   http://skytx2000.homestead.
com/files/flower.jpg

and I write the html as  

That is *img src="http://skytx2000.homestead.
com/files/flower.jpg"*    replace * with < & >

But the pic does not show up when I preview.

Thanks Dan

you must do the brackets then img src=" all the above then" and another  closing bracket

But in my opinion, I wish some poets would scale  down the size of the pictures  so the poem is the important part...I don't always  read a poem if the picture is larger than the words...

It was not my lips you kissed, but my soul."

You left out some important ingredients in the URL ... now enlose the link above with the rest of your code (including the brackets and the ", with no spaces and it should work ... like this ...


Off and running~

It's pretty big, can you make it smaller and repost it on your site? Some members will have a hard time when it tries to load...

Yes I will shrink it down before I post it thanks for the help.  It is hard to believe that flower is half an inch in real life...lol

WOW that's a lovely flower, I'm off to Open# to search for the words you put with it.
