How Do I Add An Image To My Homepage?

First of all, when looking for images for your homepage,
make sure that they are "free" and not copyrighted.
Usually there are instructions on how to save images,
please be sure to follow them.  Usually, (at least in Netscape),
you would right-click over the image, and select "save as", and save to your hard drive.
Also, please give credit where credit is due...
If the webpage author asks you to add a small link back to them,
please do so. They put a lot of hard work into making free images,
and it would be great for them to get some extra traffic to their website.


Links and Images-Anchored Links...
Without Links, the World Wide Web wouldn't be a web at all!
To add a link... you will use the <a href="location"> opening tag
and </a> closing tag. Whatever appears between these two tags will
 become underlined and colored, and if you click on the underlined
text it will send the browser to the location within the quotes.
Please replace ZooMom with your membername, and my address with  yours.
**Hint: Open WordPad, or a word processing document- copy and paste
these codes, then change them however you wish. Saves typing time.

Example of a link... Visit ZooMom's!
    Visit <a href="http://www.oocities.org/EnchantedForest/Meadow/5581/">ZooMom's</a>!
     Note: Although Links are usually used to send people to other web pages,
you may also use it to send email to a specific address
by using a location of mailto:user@host.
    Example of a Mailto: Link...
     Send email to  ZooMom!
     Send email to<a href="mailto:dale4cin@epix.net">ZooMom</a>!
In-line Images...
You may also add images (pictures) to your web page,
as long as the image is in the .gif or .jpg (or .jpeg) file formats.
You will not be able to use .bmp format files!
Combining Links and Images...
     Many times you may want to have an image that is linked,
so that if someone clicks the image, the
person will be taken to another page.
This is rather simple- you just need to place the IMG tag
     within these brackets   <             >.
Another Hint...
When you see a homepage you like,
go to the "view" menu and view the document source;
this will show you the html used for a certain effect.

You will see that the little button, when clicked on,
will take you back to my main help guide.
That is an example of linking an image to another page.
