"To display an image (such as a photograph) in a Saab Network BB message:
1. The image must reside on a web-page or a webpage server in order to appear in a Saabnet.comt message. If you have an image you would like to post here but it is not on a webpage, there are several free sites on the web that can host the image. http://www.homestead.com is one example.
2. Once a image is on such a webpage, it will have it's own unique URL. Image URLs contain either a ".jpg" or a ".gif" at the end and must start with "http://". For instance, look at the top of most Saabnet.comt pages and you will see the blue "The SAAB Network - http://www.saabnet.com" logo. This is an image that has it's own unique URL. In this case, the Saabnet.comt logo's URL is:
http://www.saabnet.com/tsn/tsnlogosm.gif
4. So how do you find the URL for an image?? There are different methods of finding an image's URL depending on what hardware and software you are using. For instance, in Netscape for Windows 95/98/NT, one can simply right-click anywhere on the image itself and select "Copy Image Location". This will copy the image's URL to the computer's clipboard just like we did earlier with the website URL. In Internet Explorer for Windows, one can right-click the image and select "properties" and the image's URL will appear in the properties box. On Macintosh, hold down the Command or Apple key while click-holding the image and similar choices should appear. Every program is different, so it may take some investigation to find out how to determine the URL of an image in the particular software you are using.
Once you know how to determine a image URL, you can grab images off of just about any webpage on the WWW and use it in a Saab Network BB post. All you need is the image's URL. Note however, that you can only enter one image per post.
Again, it's easy to spot an image URL because it will always have that ".jpg" or ".gif" on the end.
5. Once you have determined the URL for the image, it is simply a matter of copy-pasting it, or entering it manually into the "Optional Image URL" field at the bottom of any BB page. When you post your message, the image should appear at the top."
