How about using a text wrap with pictures? Is it possible?

You can place the text inline with your image using the left or right command.
Code:
[img=left]http://www.yourwebpage.com/images/title.gif[/img]

This code places the image to the left of the text.


Code:
[img=right]http://www.yourwebpage.com/images/title.gif[/img]

And of course this code places images to the right of your text. Otherwise, with just the [img ] command, the picture will appear either above or below the text.

Does the image have a limit? (about size or something like that?)

I'm not sure if the images have a size limit. The larger images look cluttered on the forums, as do too many images.

When you edit your profile you can add a link following the linking instructions above, or Smee's wonderfully detailed instructions on the linking topic in this IFTI forum.

You could have made it a link Fauna :wink:

Glad you've got it worked out Jnmrcs - the sig is looking good. Very Happy

Happy Writing. Smile

Okay, I was thinking of adding a couple of pics to Narg, but it seems to do that I have to link to an external website, which again i can do, but any site i have would be rather transient, and hence likely to dissapear.

Is there anywhere on IF I could store an image to link to?

You can also use Tiny Pic.

There is also Imageshack for image hosting.

I noticed it doesnt work here but another BBCode tag is

Code:
[hr]


Which should put a horizontal rule across the page.

You can use the album as well. However, there is a bug.

If you use the
Code:
[IMG]
command on it's own, it won't work for some reason. However, if you use the
Code:
[img=left]
or
Code:
[img=right]
command it will work!

I don't know if anyone can look at this?

Code:

But you should keep in mind that a lot of the time people don't expect pictures to be links in IF so they don't ever click on them.

I do, probably because I do it myself a lot!

You should always check for that little hand pointer! Try it on my signature. Wink
