379421 2005-08-08 09:10:00 I think the subject says it all but I'll add that I've started a blog and want to find somewhere that goes into the really simple stuff like how to make a link to other pages and add images,etc.
Okay I've been able to add images to the first page I've done but now I want to be able to hit the link button and have the http thingy I paste in...arrive!,you know,like have an image pasted in but with an imbedded link.

379423 2005-08-08 09:30:00 are you meaning, you want a pic that is a link?? Prescott (11)
379424 2005-08-08 10:39:00 It sounds like you've signed up with an online blogging service like livejournal or blogger, or it could be that your using software to make webpages for you. Anyway, which is the case, give us a link to your blog or at least the site your using to do this. Different sites have different methods of getting things done. To answer if the case is that your doing this the HTML way then the following should help.

To display a picture with a link to another page:

<a href="anotherpage.htm"><img src="picture.gif" /></a>

379425 2005-08-09 03:25:00 Heres where I am
http://artyone.blogsome.com/
and this is the homepage
http://blogsome.com/
So to be a little more precise this is what I'd like to do though I'm not completely sure of this yet given the newness with the process.
I can create posts,which end up over the last,as per regular blogs,but I can also create pages and it seems to me ,for what I want,the best thing to do is use the post page as a running introduction and just put links in it to pages.
This way I reverse the normal chronology back to normal so it is read from beginning to end.I think I can get this together if I have a "tag"which I can add to the normal image insertion tag.
img src="photobucket.com alt="its a photo" /
Above is the "tag" that appears,without the enclosing more than and less than digits at the ends so it doesn't load,and where and what do I add to it to make clicking on the loaded picture open on another page as a new page?

379426 2005-08-09 03:53:00 .......... ,and where and what do I add to it to make clicking on the loaded picture open on another page as a new page?
See Sals post above, and put

img src="photobucket.com alt="its a photo" /

where Sal put

img src="picture.gif" /

Your code defines the pic and the alternative text. Sals "href=" bit defines what the pic links to
