Welcome!

Unfortunately Geocities does not allow external image hosting from their web space so your picture won`t work [img]images/icons/frown.gif[/img] . You`ll need to find a host who does allow hotlinking or "remote loading" to host pictures posted here. These are becoming hard to find- especially if you want it for free- but one such source, apparently, is Sony`s ImageStation: http://imagestation.com .

Heres what I learned (With tripod) if you have a LINK and an Image than after they link of they come back the immage will pul itsels out from cache. Does your ISP give you any server space for a "web page". I am with ATT broadband and realized that I had web space that was being paid for/included with the internet access, so I started putting everything there.

Oh, let me tell you the trick with quote, using [] instead of {} obviously you do this

{quote}Where its from or whatever...then do a hard return
{QB}And that will make the second part "quoted" and bold and then to end quote you just / both of them{/qb}{/quote}

Do it with the proper brackets and you get this:

<BLOCKQUOTE><font size="1" face="Verdana, Arial">quote:</font><HR>Where its from or whatever...then do a hard return
And that will make the second part "quoted" and bold and then to end quote you just / both of them<HR></BLOCKQUOTE>

Sorry if this is a dumb one, but how do you attach an image or images to your post? I didn't used to have a camera but do now, and need to know.

CPF doesn't do image hosting...you'll have to find a site to upload your images to.

Aparently MSN and Sony are still doing it for free, I get a pretty chunk of webspace with my access and you may too.

Upload the images to your site (By the way, Tripod and Geocities won't let you do this) and then use that IMAGE button down below and type in the link to yor image.

The picture of me is located at http://home.attbi.com/~saaby/ryansm.jpg so I click image and put in that URL to get this



if all goes well your photo should show up.

thanks man- but I need to get some webspace first. I am not sure how that happens, but I'll look into it. I have a Charter Pipeline cable hookup and Netscape is my browser. I don't think they give us webspace. [img]images/icons/rolleyes.gif[/img]
