It's very easy to do, so you shouldn't have much of a problem doing it.

To place a caption at the bottom of a picture, use this code: < IMG SRC = "PICTURE URL" > (exclude all spaces).

To make a link for an image, sign up for Image Shack, or PhotoBucket -- whichever you choose -- it'll work both ways. You upload pictures, and you copy the "URL" it has listed. If you already made an account, you're good-to-go to put the Url where it says "PICTURE URL" and insert it.

To make font bold, start it with < B > (exclude spaces) and end the bold with < / B >.

To make it look cooler, if you want to do a strikeout, put < S > and end it with < / S >; or underline, put < U > and end it with < / U >.

If you want it huge, use the Headers. < H1 > for the biggest and < H6 > for the smallest. End it with < / H1 > or < / h6 >

To make it small you can do subscripts ( < sub >, < / sub > ) or superscripts ( < sup >, < / sup >.

To color it, use this code: < FONT COLOR = Color you want > and end it with < / FONT >.

If you want to change the font style, like change it from arial to verdana, put < FONT TYPE = "name" > and end it with < / FONT >

Just keep in mind you have limited space for the caption box (if using Myspace) so you probably won't be able to stick them all in.

And I know you didn't want those extra things, but I thought it would be cool for you to know =]. I love being creative with text, because it makes it stand out. Just remember from the codes given, exclude the spaces, so the codes will show up on here, and always end the code. Otherwise, you will mess up your profile.

I am an HTML nerd, by the way.

Good luck and hope I helped! =]

You need quotes around the URL for it to work.

<img src="PICTURE URL HERE">

Bold:
<B> and </b> to cancel.

Colored:
<font color=red>
or
<font color=ee2288>
(hex codes)

To make an icon a caption just copy the icon code and put it where you would type the caption.

text effects:

bold- < b >text< /b >
italic- < i >text< /i >
underline- < u >text< /u >

Accept take out all of the spaces!

And for color...
< font color=# whatever the color # is>text< /font>

Accept take out all the spaces! Accept for the space between font&color. That space goes there.


Hope i helped! Any questions? Send them to my inbox!
