Welcome to the forum.
Like a lot of newbies, your images wont show up. We all just get an X.
This is not an error in your post (as it usually is).. it is instead Geocities fault.
Geocities does not allow 'Hotlinking' of images... or any other files. You have to actually be present on the local server www.geocities.com/something.........
To be able to view the images.
I suggest you find a better host... someone here at the forum offers space for images, that are to be used in Sijun forum posts. Yet I can't remeber who it is... hmm.. sorry.
One other way to get around the Geocities problem is to just provide us with the full path to an html page with the image on it. Make sure this is text, and not a url. Just plain text of your images location, on an html document, so that we can simply copy and paste it into the address bar. |

Angelfire and Geocities don't allow remote links; you're better off with homestead or 50megs. |
