Have a look at the source code of this page :
http://www.stevie21.com/AB/links.html
to see the code for inserting images.
<img src='filename.jpg' width='123' height='123' alt='alt text' />
All of the color, style, font sizes etc. on this page is done via the stylesheet which is a separate file - there should be nothing in the html that says that something is a different size/colour. I'd recommend using this type of thing right from the off instead of "font" tags.
If you're not sure why every "h2" tag in my page is orangey and underlined it's because the head section links to my stylesheet :
<link target='_blank' href="stevie1.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" />
and in this stylesheet, I've instructions that any "h2" heading is styled like :
h2 {
color: #FF9900; (orangey)
font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', Verdana, sans-serif;
font-size: medium;
border-bottom: 1px solid #333333; (underlined)
text-align: left;
font-weight: bold;
margin-bottom: 10px;
padding: 3px;
}
Does this make ANY sense?
