Lesson 4:   IMAGES AND HOW TO PLACE THEM ON THE WEB PAGE

  1. Copyright law is complicated. Before using ANY graphics from a web page, be sure to read all disclaimers and conditions of use.


  2. Use of only JPEG/JPG and GIF files is recommended. JPEG/JPG files usually take up less disk space and GIF 89A files have "transparent" backgrounds.


  3. Basic IMG SRC Tag:
                    <IMG SRC="imagename.imagetype">
            Add ALT tag:
                    <IMG SRC="cat.gif" ALT="This is my cat">
            Add HEIGHT and WIDTH tag:
                    <IMG SRC="cat.gif" ALT="This is my cat" HEIGHT="100" WIDTH="75">
            Add ALIGN tag for LEFT or RIGHT (HORIZONTAL):
                    <IMG SRC="cat.gif" ALT="This is my cat" HEIGHT="100" WIDTH="75" ALIGN="RIGHT">
                    (Note: If using Netscape, CENTER must be used before the ALIGN tag and /CENTER after the ALIGN                 tag. It cannot be included within the IMG SRC tag.


    4.         Add ALIGN tag for TOP, MIDDLE or BOTTOM (VERTICAL):
                    <IMG SRC="cat.gif" ALT="This is my cat" HEIGHT="100" WIDTH="75" ALIGN="BOTTOM">

This is just going to be a sample of a blockquote which I don't quite understand
...Jane Doe surfs to a web page and ses a really nice drawing of a cat in a rose garden. Since she is making a web pag with rose gardening as her theme and she also loves cats, she uses her browser's copy function to save it to her computer and for use on her new web page. If she uses it, will she be breaking the law? Yes, if for profit, to make a collection of clipart, doesn't ask for permission from the owner, etc. etc. etc. This is just going to be a sample of a blockquote which I don't quite understand...
What if I wanted to indent again or even more?

Here is another try at making a BLOCKQUOTE have bigger margins by using FOUR (4) BLOCKQUOTES:
