You will need your own hosting site for your images. There are a number of free image hosting sites available. You will need to make sure that your hosting site will permit remote linking. Also check which formats (.bmp, .gif, .png, .jpg. ect…) they accept. Try to use the most compressed format as possible. This will help with page load time. Two ways to add an Image Click on "IMG" tag and enter complete URL for the image. Then click OK Typing out code with complete URL for the image: Code: `[IMG]http://www.yourhostsite.com/image.jpg[/IMG]` Align Images and Text Imagines, like text, can be aligned to the left (default), center, or right. There are no tags for this so you must type in the code. Code: `[align=left]This is Sample Text[/align]` This is Sample Text Code: `[align=center]This is Sample Text[/align]` This is Sample Text Code: `[align=right][IMG]http://www.yourhostsite.com/image.jpg[/IMG][/align]` Free Hosting Sites Check with your Internet Service Provider (ISP) first, many like aol and freeserve include some web space with your package. http://www.picturehost.co.uk/ http://www.villagephotos.com/index.asp http://www.hawgwild.us/pixiehost/index.php http://photobucket.com/ http://imageshack.us/ These are a few I found and use. If anyone else has some please feel free to post. Hope this helps and have fun, but be responsible.

Can it be done? Thanks, Not sure I understand exactly what your asking, so let me try to answer this in two ways. If you want to save a "Screen Shot." Bring Image up on screen Push "Print Scrn" button on keyboard Open "Paint" (Start>>Programs>>Accessories>>Paint) Goto "Edit">>>"Paste" Select the portion of Image you want to save and "Cut" Open a new Paint window and "Paste" Then "Save" Image..... Note Try to save Image in most compressed format. A Image already on your hard drive Upload your image to your hosting site who will provide you with a URL for the Image. Follow directions in post above to install. I'm sure there's other way to do this with Photo Editing Software, that I don't use, but this is what I found that works for me. Hope this is what you were looking for.

Unregistered	Ouch! MS Paint. 3MB for one screenshot in .bmp format. Well, I guess not everyone knows about all the freebies available for image modification. If you really want to compress an image to a managable size, say under 20KB, go to http://download.com, or any other shareware site, and check out the free or trial image optimizing apps available. As far as linking to an image on your HDD. Yes, it is possible, but you have to have your system set up as a web server. Unless you plan on hosting your own site from your desktop, it's not worth the trouble, just use the free image hosts available. I've run my system as a web server before, but it's a pain to config Apache, MySQL, PHP, and a dynamic DNS client.

Newer version of MS Paint (like in XP) have the ablity to save/compress images as JPEGs, GIFs, and PNGs.

Unregistered	I that the version of MSPaint that comes with XP is better, but it's still a far cry from what is available elsewhere. If you compare the quality of the image that MSPaint converts to when using jpeg, for instance, you'll see why I don't like it too much. BTW, the 3MB was an exaduration, but not much of one. Prior to buying Macromedia Studio MX, I did all my image editing with freeware and shareware appz. I'll dig around and see what I can find. I'll post the links as soon as I can. Just trying to offer other options to people who want to do more that what MSPaint will offer.
