Images can be easily placed in HTML documents but there are a few rules which you should stick to.

• Type - All images must be either GIF files (.gif), JPEG files (.jpg) or PNG files (.png).
• File Size - You should keep the file size down to improve download time.
• Image Quality - The quality of the image will effect download time (also some people might not have 16bit colour etc.).
• Amount of Images - Too many could also effect download time.

The image above was added using the tag below.

<img src="../images/help/gnet.jpg" width="281" height="54" alt="Guernsey.Net" border="0">

The <img> tag can have the attributes: src="path to image file", width="a width in pixels", height=" a height in pixels" and alt="alternate text (to be displayed either when the cursor is placed over the image or in place of the image in browsers which do not support images)".

The <img> tag can also have the attribute align="absbottom, absmiddle, baseline, bottom, left, middle or right" this is the alignment of the image to any text around it. E.g.

Image aligned to the left

Image aligned to the right of text Hello

Image aligned to the absmiddle

Image aligned to the baseline

Image aligned to the absbottom

Image aligned to the middle
