For The Link Impaired

Been sick for the last week or so, but I thought I would take the time and do a how to blog I have been meaning to do since sometime back in 2007. What I am going to show is how to put a link in your blog. It is very simple, but hard to explain in a blog unless you know how to show what needs to be typed in the blog.


If you type in the above in your blog, it will show up as this.


Did this seem simple? Well, it is terribly simple if you know the syntax. All you need are two things: the http address and the name you want to give the link.  In the example I give above, the http address is http://thehermitblog.blogspot.com/ and the name of the link displayed is The Hermit Blog. Change out those two things and you can do whatever linking you like.


Images are even simpler. All you need is the http address of the image. For instance, if I go look at my profile pic, the address is http://c3.ac-images.myspacecdn.com/images02/18/l_4551541407314412b2dbff1082366e0e.jpg. I get it by selecting view image on whatever picture I want to include. The image http address shows up in the address of your browser and should end in an image extension such as jpg, gif, png, or others. You type the following in your blog to show the image.








As for me, I am doing okay I suppose. I don't get on myspace as much and don't watch too much TV any longer. I have tunes:)

Take Care,
Steve
