url is the link that the picture is located or stored on via internet


you can find the size simply by scrolling over the picture and it will show you the size.

Thank you very, very much. I'd rather you teach me how to do it, and if I still don't get it I'll ask you to help me further.

Can't I just use an image that's already stored in my files?

you would view the picture at what ever web site you stored your pic in. then you would copy the link and paste it in the box. make sure its the right size or it wont work.

80x80

How do you store your image in a website?
If it isn't the right size, can I alter it?

Oi. ok you can resize it but not when its already stored on a web page. u can usally do it in microsoft paint or some other paint program.

To store a image open a free account and upload the file. if you need me to do it you can just send the image to expertatff@aol.com and i can do it for you.

Thanks lucreborn, you're a great help.

Now I'll try doing that myself, and if it doesn't work, I'll ask for more help.

I've just tried geocitis. No luck.
Why, do you have to have a card (visa,or...,or....) to do it?
