can't see it.

try
<img src="http://www.somewhere/yourimage.jpg">

see if that works.

the image IS on the internet, isn't it? if it's not you have to upload it somewhere before it will work.

oh. Geocities does not allow direct liking.
you'll need to put it somewhere else, like photobucket.com

doesn't that suck?

seems to work on and off tho, and i can see it...

could be wrong, but I think you can only see it because your computer has cached it, so it's filling it in... geocities has done some sort of thing (I dont' know what) so that you can't use that picture outside of your geocities webpage. you can't even put a link to it.
if someone does, then they can't see it unless they open the pic in a new window.

If you save it into a text frame on Geocities then you can direct link and it will be fine

right-o, I knew there was some way around that ..
but how do you save in a text frame, if you dont' mind my asking, then what is the file extention .. .txt? .. so then wehn you post your image is it like..
<img src="http://www.geocities.whatever.com/picture.txt"> ???
how DOES that work?

I can't exactly remember. I would fiddle around and do it so I could tell you, but my computer doesn't like geocities.

I'll tell you later when I can get on the sixth-form computer, if no one beats me to it!
