I've created a welcome image for guests using photoshop then dreamweaver, I want this to be added to notices for guests to view on my forum. But how do I get this image to show, what's the html code i need to put in the 'notice html'?

You'd just put regular old html, like:

<img src="path_to_image/imagename.png">


and of course you want to change it to the path and image name of your actual image.

Thanks for this, how about if I have clickable links on my image say 3 of them?? I know very little about html, so any help much appreciated.

So you mean there are three different parts of the image that you want to be clickable? Then I guess you want an imagemap, like this: http://www.w3schools.com/tags/tag_map.asp

I'm not an html expert either, I only know the basics.

Thanks for your help, but it doesn't seem to work for me?? I've inserted that code just for the image in 'Notice Html' below

<img src="http://www.mysite.com/images/misc/banner.png">

and that doesn't show the image either?? could it be another reason why it's not showing?

Does the notice show at all? If you take the url out of the src= part and put it in the browser, does it show the image?

Got it working now, thanks for your time anyway. :)
