The URL is the long string of characters that you put in the address bar to tell your computer which site it should put up a 404 for. ;) It begins with "http://".

Good call. If you mix up the letters a bit and squint at them sideways, "applause" kinda looks like "applesauce."

Hmm... many debate this very issue. Some say it is way more important than some insignificant debate about whether a Chicken or an Egg came first. Others argue that the answer to the question would bring about the destruction of the entire universe, hence must never be uncovered.

Can someone please restate in clear, simpletons, English how to put in pictures, because:
1. I have been very sick and can't remember anything.
2. I didn't understand in the first place.[/color:post_uid0]

taya17
07-31-2003, 01:54 AM
[color=#000000:post_uid0]Okay if you want to put pictures into the picture itself, the simplest way would be to click the little button in the row above where you post your response. yes the one that says "Image", so that a little window pops up asking for the url of the picture that you want to put up. Then you enter the full url of it into the little window, hit enter and let the javascript generate the code you need in your message.


yes, unfortunately you can only put pictures up if they are already online i.e. have a url address. you can stored pictures on free sites such as villagephotos or yahoo!photos though. Don't use geocities or tripod at any account; they don't like remote loading of images (i.e. images being loaded on another page) so they'll either block the loading or delete your account.

was that clear enough? or too long-winded?

I need someone to tell me how in terms that I can understand.
Here's what I've got so far:

http://...etc. (yeah, I get that) but all i can manage to do is add a link to the picture, not the picture itself.

...on the website... well that seems to mean it has to be on a website, and i did ask somewhere if it was possible to just add a clip-art somehow. Maybe I am gonna have to get my own website to do this (which may take a while as i have no idea how to do that either.)

and i heard '404' mentioned somewhere which sounded important. I hope information on that will soon follow.
