    Basic HTML Tags: Insert Image

    This code will allow you to insert an image from a file posted online. This is basically what the "Insert/Edit Image" button on Blogiversity does for us. The code for inserting an image is: <img src="imagename.gif" width="x" height="x">

    You must first upload an image online (this can be done through your blog files). Then replace "imagename.gif" with the URL of your image. Then just replace the "x"es with the dimensions of your image. You can do this on firefox by right clicking an image and clicking on "Properties". This will bring up some stats, including the width and height. Drop the numbers in and paste the code.

    For example,

    <img src="http://www.blogiversity.org/sitefiles/1000/blogiversitylogo.gif" width="543" height="80"> should look something like this:

    If you want the text to wrap around the image, you can add align=left (or align=right). To keep a little space between the image and the text, I like to add hspace=10 and vspace=10. The hspace refers to horizontal spacing and vspace refers to vertical spacing.

    To get the image to appear on the left, I used:

    <img src="[pathtoimage]" align="left" hspace="10" vspace="10">
    Computers are like dogs. They can sense fear. You must BELIEVE that they will work.

    Thanks for the info. I had no idea you could do that. I'm just beginning to pick up little snippets of HTML as I go so I'm really glad to see a pro in these forums. I'd love to learn more from you if you're up to posting in these forums more often.
