It is pretty easy, once you get it.
How do i find moving pictures on the internet? i want to add a moving one instead of a normal picture :-)
There are a ton of places - some safe and some not, Claire. You can do a search for "gif" files.I don't use a lot of them, but I do use:

They don't have the some html is ok place to click?"I usually "practice" mine in a thread, Oleander, but do NOT post it - just "preview" it. Then I "cut & paste" it to my status update.

can you plz tell me what i am doing wrong [image error]
the image doesn't show when i publish my review.
thnx

I see it works here on your comment section, can each group admin, turn off the use of image code? I used this exact code on another group comment and nothing but a place holder.
No, the Mods don't have that ability, Mike. It could be you are missing or adding one little thing, such as a space before the " sign.
OK, I just went to the exact forum thread and copied the above code used here, and it now works, the same code that would not work before.Then I copied the code that I wanted to use that I save in a note file, and now it works.
Maybe Goodreads was doing maintenance on the site, and was causing that thread not to allow image code to work at that time.
Don't you just hate it when your doing it the right way, and the technology make you think your wrong!
Thank you, this is a very helpful thread.
Yes, sometimes when they are doing maintenance, it messes things up. And, yes, it is frustrating when I think it is me and not them!

It could be as simple as having a space before or after the "That is what most people do.

Yay! Now I just need to do this a hundred times to really get it LOL.
Yay! Congrats, Nichole. Cute.
Great, Arfa! Congrats. By the way, I discover if you only do one of the measurements (such as height), the other will default in with the right ratio with you trying to figure it out. The the pic isn't distorted. For instance, if I just put in height="200" for the following and got this:
Hmmm.. let me try
