would anyone like to teach me some basic html stuff?
i know bold italic
and that's about it.

i'd like to know how to upload an image that's from my own computer onto ... say this post. (i know how to do it if it's from another site)

any help would be greatly appreciated.

thanx in advance

just do a quote from any message that has interesting formating (http://www.gotapex.com/ubb/Forum9/HTML/000652.html).

HTML holds no secrets (unlike the file formats used by certain software firms run by megalomaniacs)[Learn to share Bill]

also u can check out the FAQ of the ubb. HTML is quite basic and ubb makes it easier to combine it.

Well, to use an image that's on your computer you need to put it online first. Which means you have to ask someone to upload it for you on their webspace, or you have to get some free webspace yourself. Geocities is one you could use.
Ones you have the pic uploaded you need to put a linking code in your post. If you check the ubb code explanations you will see that there is a tag to put images in your post.

EDIT: and if you really want to use the html code, it's [img src="url.of.your.pic"]
Only replace the [] with <>

=)
HTML is really not too hard once u get use to it. I don't really hard code HTML until this summer. but i was a Wiz at frontpage. A good way to see what u leared is to view source codes of pages and see if you can decode it =) plus lets you cut and paste tags =)
