How to insert a picture in a comment or email on Gather

Try the code below:

<img src="http://media-files.gather.com/images/d468/d455/d744/d224/d96/f3/full.jpg">

<img src="http://media-files.gather.com/images/d468/d455/d744/d224/d96/f3/full.jpg" border="0">

<img src="http://media-files.gather.com/images/d468/d455/d744/d224/d96/f3/full.jpg" border="0" alt="descriptive text about the picture, which will show as a screen tip in Internet Explorer when someone hovers the mouse over it">

Hope this helps! Oh, and here's an example with the picture serving as a hyperlink set to open in a new window:

<a href="http://www.gather.com/viewMember.jsp?memberId=148957" target="_blank"><img src="http://media-files.gather.com/images/d468/d455/d744/d224/d96/f3/full.jpg"></a>

The border and alt tags are optional, but if you exclude them, some browsers will automatically put a 1px border around all images, and the alt tag is used for visually impaired people to tell them what the image is.

To get the code for your image, it's best if you're using Firefox for your browser. Open the image so that it's not a thumbnail (smaller version) then right-click on it and choose "view image". Once you have done this, the URL at the top of the page will be for your image and your image alone.

Alternately, you can host your images on an image-hosting site. But then you won't get points for it!
