Here we go with a graphics test page save as graphicstest.htm and the Pictures as picname.jpg as shown.

We will add tags to show your pictures to go with text we have covered, from a single picture or graphic to
linking a thumbnail to a lager picture. We will also add an alt tag for info about the picture that shows when the mouse passes over a picture. Images are either jpg or gif images.Here we go on how to show your graphics.



Badger Cub

Here is a nice picture of a Badger Cub,
as you can see using "align= left"
allows text to be written here,
a "hspace= attribute" keeps text
away from the picture's side.
View the code in notepad.


You can see the text has wrapped around the picture quite well,
not perfect I know but what do you want from a fellow learner.



Badger Cub

As you can see we have moved
the picture to the right of the page.
With the text to the left this time.
We used the align = "right"







Badger Cub

This time we have the picture in the center of the page we have used the "center tag" to do it, your text goes below picture this time.



Now we will link a thumbnail to a larger picture, this is the best way
to show a large picture, visiters do not like to wait for a large picture
to load, this gives them the choice to view the large picture or not.

our dog Chloe Click on the thumbnail, this will load larger picture.
