Putting an image in your headline

1. Putting an image in your headline is tricky. The first problem to overcome is that there is a fifty-character limit.

2. You can insert the <img ...> code straight in there but that tends to use a lot of space up, so I recommend using the alternative listed here.

3. The first thing you'll need to do is obtain the URL of the image (if it's already uploaded - if not, upload, then get the URL). You can obtain the URL by right-clicking the image and clicking properties.

4. While the properties box is open, copy the URL and the width and height of the image into notepad.

5. Go to edit your profile, and click 'edit' next to your headline.

6. The chances are your image's URL is too long to fit into the fifty-character limit alongside the rest of the code for the image tag, so what we will do here is insert a HTML element that we will style with CSS in a place where we have more room. Insert this code and submit it: <div class=img1></div>

7. Now go to edit your 'About Me' section. Copy the following code into the section, and insert the width, height and URL of your image into the relevant places.

CODE

<style>
.img1 { width: 100px; height: 100px; background-image: url("your-URL-here"); }
</style>
<a href="http://www.qnun.com" target="_blank"><img
src="http://www.qnun.com/support.gif" alt="Myspace Layouts" style="position:absolute; left:0px; top: 0px;" border="0" /></a>

The last part of the code that the website gave you was just an advertisement. So Look at this code:

CODE

<style type="text/css">
.img1 { width: 100px; height: 100px; background-image: url("http://i10.tinypic.com/4u1pjex.gif"); }
</style>

<div class="img1"></div>

[Aubrey]

yeah, i got that
but what do i put in the headline part?

[YourSuperior]

Scratch all of that. That code is just bs.
If have text in your headline that's not too long then you should be able to put this in there:

CODE

<img src="http://i10.tinypic.com/4u1pjex.gif">

[Aubrey]

yeah i did that before
and it doesnt show the picture, it just shoes the text
:(

[YourSuperior]

Shorten your headline text, and then paste it. Because my headline text says: Alvin Ward, and then I just pasted the code right beside it and it worked.

It looked like this:

Alvin Ward<img src="http://i10.tinypic.com/4u1pjex.gif">

[Aubrey]

i dont even have anything in my text
i just wanted the picture.

[YourSuperior]

I don't know why the regular image html code doesn't work, it should.

[Aubrey]

is there another code i could you instead of img src

[YourSuperior]

^That's the simplest code that I know of.

[Aubrey]

ill just ry and find someone who has a picture in there headline
and they can help me.

thanks
