I don't know if this will help because I am uncertain if I will be able to explain it correctly or understandably.... but here goes.
[IMG width= "300" SRC="-----------.jpg"]
I have that above thing easily accessible on my computer except instead of the brackets [] in the beginning and at the end, I have < and >. If I printed exactly as I really have it, a box with a red x would show here and not the letter/numbers/symbols. That img and 300 thingie shrinks the photo. DixieDee helped me with this a long time ago, I hope I can do her justice by helping you out too.
I copy and paste the above onto a post - but with the <> at beginning and end instead of []. Then where I have the dashes ------ , that is where I insert my address where the photo is located. I then carefully delete all the dashes and I also believe I have to delete .jpg twice cuz it shows up too many times from where I post from.
Anyway, I always hit "preview reply" first to see if the photo takes and what it looks like.
I don't know if any of this makes sense to anyone but I thought I would try and help because I wanna see more photos!!!!
Good luck.
