Uploading Pictures:

If you have images that you want to include with your story, you can do one of two things, depending upon where the image file is located.

  1. If the file is located on a different website, you can often make it load into your story from that website, by linking it in such a way that it points to the image file on that web server.

    So, if the image was for instance here, and you wanted to embed it into your story, you'd write the code to look like this:

    <img src="http://www.candleinthedark.org/dailypic.jpg">

    IMG SRC is telling your browser program where to look for the image file. That address points to the Think, Inc. webserver. The final would result would look like this:

  2. If the image file is located on your computer's hard drive and you need to upload it onto the web, you will need to FTP it to a web server. Think, Inc. does not provide FTP access for the FFMA, however we have reserved some free webspace where you can upload pictures.

    FTP: snow.prohosting.com
    Username: ffma
    Password: McF7CjdE

    If you do not know how to FTP, you will need to click here to use the web-based interface for uploading files. Login using the username and password above and follow the instructions for uploading files.

    Once you have uploaded a file to the server, you will need to point to it by writing the HTML code as such:

    <img src="http://snow.prohosting.com/ffma/your-image.jpg">

    Replace "your-image.jpg" with the name of the file that you uploaded. Please keep in mind that webservers are case-sensitive.
