Does anyone know how to add a picture to a Journal entry?

No - despite having a scanner and graphics software, the pictures never seem to be the right format for ANYWHERE!

Journals aren't *necessarily* the best place for pictures, which is why we don't let you embed them.
This might change.

But can you put pictures anywhere else on your homepage? If so, how?

I agree it would be nice to be able to add a picture even if it was limited in size, format, dimensions etc
Twobitz page looks much nicer for having an illustration.

Putting graphics on your page is easy as long as you know the basics of HTML. The trick is to make sure the graphic is already accessible on the net (a free homepage perhaps). All you then have to do is link to that image. OK, OK, call up one of my pages (www.h2g2.com/p43381) and select "view source" from your browser and look for the babelfish image statement. Beware! Mucking up HTML results in a ruined page or a crashed browser. I am trying to catalogue the contents of www.h2g2.com/images in a user page - soon.
