Mom, you are getting the url address from the PAGE that the clipart is on. You need to select which one you want to use, put your mouse pointer over it and do a right mouse click. Then click properties and copy the url address.

Thanks....I'll try it again! I'm also trying to use a picture from the Sony Imagestation site.......

We'll get it, hang in there.

For the imagestation, you wantr to go to your sorage bin, after you have uploaded the picture. When in the storage bin, click on the picture (thumbnail) and get the larger one. Then do the right mouse click and so on on the picture.

Dan, I have a strange question.....everytime I try to "paste" the url after the , it automatically skips to the next line not allowing the "]" and "h" to be side by side. I tried to run the two together but got the above message.

What am I doing wrong???

Thanks in advance for your help! :teeth:

OMG! I did get it right...but it's sooooo huge...

Can you help me change it down to a smaller size?

 

[cadburysmom]

Well, somehow my pic was there a minute ago...

oh well, it's late so I guess I'll go to bed and try again in the morning...

thanks for your help

Found this on an earlier post on this thread, just thought I'd try it out!

 

[Dan Murphy]

Well, a few things. First, the Tigger above came out fine, so you have the concept down just fine.

As for the ] and the h on different lines, that is just 'word wrap' from the size of the board frame you are posting in. As long as you are pasting or typing it next to it, it is, even though it may appear to not be.

And, as for the imagestation picture, you need to go to the storage bin (you'll see the link or icon there), then click on the thumbnail (small) picture, thereby popping up a larger one. Use that picture. The picture you have now has a .org.jpg at the end of the address. The other will not. You could use this one here, but need to drop off that last part, it needs to end in only a SINGLE jpg, no period at the end. (getting confused, LOL?)

If you used it without that .org.jpg, it should look like this

&#91img]http://www.imagestation.com/picture/sraid116/pe89e610ab8d8da467d3577b4653c3565/f8b9de85.jpg&#91/img]

and you will get this

BUT, that is a bit too big (ahhhhhh, rules, LOL) for your signature, if that is where you want to use it. Otherwise it is fine. If you want to use it in your signature, you either have to make it a bit smaller before you upload it, or, force it to look smaller here, by using html <> rather than ubb [] code.

Using this

&#60img width=400 src=http://www.imagestation.com/picture/sraid116/pe89e610ab8d8da467d3577b4653c3565/f8b9de85.jpg>

(and for the html, there does need to be a space after the g in the img and the 0 in 400, weird, I know, Otherwise, no spaces)

will give you a bit smaller look, like this

<img width=400 src=http://www.imagestation.com/picture/sraid116/pe89e610ab8d8da467d3577b4653c3565/f8b9de85.jpg>

All confused now? Don't worry, work on it a bit, you'll get it. And somebody always close by to help.

And the picture looks GREAT!!!!! A luau??? And less than 3 weeks for another trip!!!!!
