h2g2 The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy: Earth Edition

Is there a way to add pictures, paragraphs and subtitles in personal reports. It would really improve the look of our reports. it would be easier to read to, with subtitles and paragraphs. The pictures will make the reports more intresting. We could either upload pictures from our hardisks or we could give the Url for an image.

What about it?

You should be able to put pic in anything on h2g2 if you just put the HTML code in the text. So I better 'put my money where my mouth is' if you know.

For example this is me and my girlfriend on a hill:




Well I tried it and it didn't work as you can see. But you can see it has put a link in for you, which is half way there.....
err

http://websites.ntl.com/~timothy.holman <---- click this link

which works fine

hope it helps a bit?

As you can see it mucks up you HTML code for you? But I put some in my user page okay. Have a look at that.

You can't put HTML in forum posts. This is deliberate. Space in a forum is at a premium and if people started putting pictures and tables and Java applets in forum posts, things would get a little hairy.

HTML in user pages is OK, though.

I thought that might be the case and it is a good a rule as any to have. God knows the trouble people could get themselves in, and that kind of trouble is always the worst (the self made kind). Being the testing type (i.e. always getting myself into trouble) I had to have a go obviously. I understand why though and now everybody knows they can just put links to there user pages and put the HTML there and that is okay, pretty dam cool really I think.
Cheers
