Oh! You flatter me! Alright then.
To put an image on your page, first the image needs to be on the net somewhere. If it already is then great, no problem, just right click on it and go to 'copy image location' or something. Basically, you need to know the address of the picture.
The code you need to put it on your page is
where the xxx's are the address of the picture.
If it's a picture you've got on your computer, but it's not on the net, then it gets trickier. You need to get your own web space and upload it to there. Luckily, there are plenty of companies who can give you this for free. Yes free. Zip. Diddly, etc
The one I use is Yahoo Geocities, at http://www.geocities.com
There's a link there (in the top right if I remember) to get a free homepage. Sign up for this and you'll then be able to upload files to the net and use the above HTML code to get your pics on your page. Result!
Oh, and by the way, when editing your page and specifying the filename of the picture, make sure you put capitals in the right places or it won't work.
If you want to see examples of this, go to View Page Source in the menu at the top of your browser, which will bring up the HTML code for the page being currently viewed.
