Be sure you're not "hot linking" a picture that's being hosted by someone else on another website without his/her permission. That considered extremely bad ettiquite on the web. If that person has limited bandwidth, then hosting a pic from his/her site not only steals their bandwidth, but could cause them to run out of bandwidth before the end of the month (usually these types of accounts are on a month-to-month basis). EVEN if they have unlimited bandwidth, it's still stealing if you don't have their permission. Kinda like parking your car in their driveway, even if it's a huge driveway with pleanty of space. So whatever you're doing with the picture, be sure it's okay for you to include the HTML for it on your site.

You would have to ask permission to use someone's photo from their photobucket page - it *is* their photo. I don't know what photobucket's policy is on "hotlinking", but I think I've seen pics from there posted (*hotlinked*) on other sites, so you may have to read their policies (which means filtering thru the legal mumbo jumbo but it may be worth it for peace of mind).

The HTML I use here is very simple " " for italics, "b" for bold, "center" for centered, "" for a "page break" - which acts like a double return - and a some colors. for example.

I have followed the example of better programmers than I where I've been a moderator on those Voy sites, but I'm keeping it very simple. They've got drop-down menus and all kind of other stuff in their headers, but we don't need all that here.

Good luck with your new Voy site, and please let us know the URL so we can stop by and say "Hi" from the Dirty Old Ladies at "the KLUB" LOL. We promise not to corrupt you too much! LOL Also, feel free to e-mail me via the "contact forum admin" link at the top for furter Qs.
