Basic Tutorial Part 5: Putting Images on your page

     Now you need to insert an image. If you want, download the image at the top of this page with the designer in it and use it for our example (just right click and choose save as. Save it in the same directory as your HTML file as "htmlsmall.gif"). Now you will use a new command. the <IMG SRC> command. Image types that you can use in an HTML file are GIF, TIFF, and JPEG. If you have an image you would really like to use but it is not in one of those formats don’t despair. Just head to our Image Editors file section and any number of programs there can help you.

Let's put the image on the top of the page. So, add this line before your first line of text: <IMG SRC="htmlsmall.gif">
Now your code should look like this:

    <HTML>  
    <HEAD><TITLE>My First Page</TITLE></HEAD>  
    <BODY>  
    <IMG SRC="htmlsmall.gif">  
    <H1>  
    <P ALIGN=CENTER><FONT COLOR="CC3366">My First
    Page</FONT><BR><BR><BR>  
    </H1>  
    <P>  
    This page was created so that I could learn HTML. 
    By the end of this tutorial I should have the 
    basics of HTML down so that I can begin creating 
    nice looking web pages.   
    <P>  
    Right now I am trying out a new command that 
    creates paragraphs. This keeps my sentences from 
    running together and looking confusing to the reader. 
    This new command, along with the ALIGN command, 
    can help me position the text wherever I want it.  
    <P>  
    Just a quick note. If you are looking 
    for a place that has cool desktop themes then
    <A HREF="#freethemes">go here!</A>
    <P>  
    Now I am going to make a list of three things 
    that I have learned so far:  
    <P>  
    <UL>  
    <LI>How to make text different color.  
    <LI>How to align text any way you want.  
    <LI>How to make text different sizes  
    </UL>  
     
    <P>  
    Now here is a list of some of the other things 
    I am going to learn during this
    tutorial:  
    <OL>  
    <LI>How to create links to other web sites.  
    <LI>How to set up a background.  
    <LI>How to link pages together.  
    </OL>
    <P>  
    <A HREF="NEWPAGE.HTML">Go to my other page!</A>
    <p>  
    <A HREF="http://www.tucows.com">
    Come to TUCOWS for all of your software needs!</A>
    <P>  
    <A HREF="mailto:yourname@yourplace.com">
    E-Mail Me!</a>
    <P><A NAME="Freethemes">Desktop Themes</A><P>  
    Where can you go for all of your desktop theme needs? 
    There may be many choices available for you to choose 
    from, but one site stands out above the rest. This site 
    will fill any possible need you may have in customizing 
    your desktop. This site is Freethemes. I suggest 
    that you go there now and get your favorite desktop 
    theme now. So, head to 
    <A HREF="http://www.freethemes.com">Freethemes!</A>
    <BR><BR><BR>
    </BODY>  
    </HTML>  
    
     You can center the image by using either the <P ALIGN> command or the <CENTER> command. Now, a trick to remember is, if you know the size of the image it helps the browser to load it that much faster. In that case the line might read <IMG SRC="htmlsmall.gif" WIDTH=470 HEIGHT=117> .
