You will find hundreds of sites on the internet which offer free graphics for your homepage. When you find a picture you like, here is how to get it for yourself.
1. put your cursor on the picture.
2. Right click on it.
3. a small box will open
4. go to Save Image As and click on it
5. a box will open--save the file to the desktop or a folder where you can find it.
Now that you have the picture on your computer, it is time to put the picture in your homepage, and get the whole thing uploaded to your site in GeoCities.
To put a graphic on your site, you need two things---the name of the gif file, and the code for adding it to your site.
The first is easy. When you click on the gif file, it will open and show you the picture you just lifted. At the top of the screen will be the name of the file. It will be a word or alphanumeric sequence followed by .gif or .jpg For example, there is a graphic here. 
If you "lift" this graphic, and look at it, you will see it is a file called book1.gif
To add this graphic to the HTML page we discussed creating earlier, you add this code ---remember, if I use a ( ) you are to use < >.
(center)(img src="book1.gif")(/center)
Be sure to put the spaces just like I did. Don't add any extras, and don't remove any that should be there.
This code will produce a centered picture on the page.
OK, so now you have almost everything to put on your page except two things. One is an e-mail link to your address. To do this, add this code:
(center)(a href="mailto:slinkyw@centuryinter.net")Write me!(/a)(/center)
again, change the ( ) to < >
Also, you need a link to GeoCities on each page of your site. To do this first go to this site, and pick a GeoCities Logo that you like
http://www.oocities.org/Athens/1813/Icons.html
Lift the gif like I described, and then put the name of the gif in the place in this code where I have the word sample.gif
(CENTER)(B)
(A HREF="/")(IMG SRC="sample.gif" BORDER=0)(/A)
(A HREF="/")(/A)(/B)(/CENTER)
This code should go at the bottom of your page just after the spot where you put the end of your table where you have (/table)
OK, that is it for how to do the graphics. I will also send a message about how to get the whole page onto your site.
