From our computer wizard DanQ:
Every time you write a message, the Lymenet computer looks for any special instructions in what you wrote. Pictures are one of the special things you can tell it to do.

To put an image in your post, you need to tell the Lymenet computer what to do - and in this case, it takes 3 parts:

The first part is to tell the computer that it's the start of an image address:
[img]

The second part is the address of the image (for example):
http://www.omsoft.com/danq/smilies/grin.gif

The third, and last, part tells the computer it's the end of an image address:
[/img]

put them all together, and it's:

NO spaces allowed in there!

*************
One thing to remember: when you "put a picture in" your message, all you're really doing is putting in a "link" to that picture. If the website where that picture is stored is not working, your picture will not work. Also, if the picture should change at the website, your picture as seen here will be changed too - even on messages that you did before! That's not likely though.

I'll put a bit more explanation about pictures in here as time goes on.

You can test out your pictures at the topic "This is a good place to test" http://flash.lymenet.org/ubb/Forum5/HTML/000223.html
