First, you take the screen shot and convert it to a jpeg to reduce the size.(photoshop or some other sort of image program can do this)

Then you can either upload it to your own webspace and link to it using the image tags, or you can attach a file to a post by selecting it in the "attach file" window at the bottom of the screen when making a new post. Although, There is only 1 file per post allowed, and there is also a size limit.

Thanks.

So if you don't have any personal webspace, you can't post screenshots, correct?

You can attach them to you post via the "attach file" window, just click on browse and select the file off of your hard drive. The maximum size is 500000 bytes, though.

First of all, Osweld, thank you for trying to help me with this.

I do have some webspace, and I uploaded an image to it. (Map.jpg). It is at the aol ftp spot...members.aol.com:/overton70.

I put the image tags around it, and....

nothing.

What gives? Do you know what I may have done wrong?

Your code is fine - it's the adress that isn't working.

A simple way to be sure you use the right adress is to just bring up the image on your browser, right click on it, select properties and cut and paste the adress shown.
