ACS ...

Are you storing them on the web and calling them through the url?

First thing is to get your pic on the web. Either on your own website, or a photo hosting site such as www.photopoint.com or www.zing.com .

After doing that, go to your photo and get the URL. The URL will then need to be surrounded by the image tags. You will put "image" in the front, and "/image" at the end. However, instead of quotes (") use the brackets ([]). I just had to use the quotes in the instructions so it would not try to post a pic of nothing. No spaces between the URL and the tags.

Here is a link to a photo of mine: albums.photopoint.com/j/V...0&res=high (http://albums.photopoint.com/j/View?u=110070&a=4518795&p=42918353&Sequence=0&res=high)

Now, if I surround that with the image tags I get this.

http://albums.photopoint.com/j/View?u=110070&a=4518795&p=42918353&Sequence=0&res=high

Use this thread to keep practicing until you get it. Need any more help just ask.

Thank you Gentelmen so the first thing is to get a web page or a picture holding site.
I thought that i could attach photos like in Outlook
Oh well back to the drawing board as we say.

Thanks Alan.
