How to Post Images on Internet Message Boards


Locate the image on the computer hard drive that is to be posted.
Host the image that is to be posted. There are many image hosting services on the Internet (see resources) that can accomplish this task. Follow the steps on the hosting site that was chosen and upload the image.
Obtain the source address for the image. Once the image is hosted it now has a source address. The source address is the images location on the host server. A source address appears similar to an Internet site address with one exception there is no www in the source address.
Insert the source address inside image markup tags. Markup tags are what enable the blogs and message boards to differentiate the image from regular typed text. An example of these tags is between the following quotation marks '
.' Be sure to eliminate the spaces between '

How to Set Up a Web Page to Sell Photos


Register a unique domain name. Select a name that is easy to remember and spell. Ensure that the domain you have chosen is available. Conduct a search with your domain name provider prior to purchasing.
Select an online photography shopping cart. The web shopping cart installs on your website and allows your customers to purchase photo prints or digital files, based on your preferences. Look for a program that will convert your images to low-resolution files, and creates a watermark to prevent unauthorized use of your photos.
Sign up for a web hosting service. Some photo shopping cart products offer hosting services in addition to product checkout. Look for a reliable hosting service with minimal server downtime and excellent reviews. Hosting prices vary based on bandwidth used and file storage space.
Set up payment options. Select an online payment provider in order to accept credit cards, and link the service to your shopping cart. Payment providers often charge between 2 percent and 3 percent in transaction fees for credit card orders.
Upload and price your photographs to your web gallery. Build your photo gallery using software from your photo shopping cart provider or a third-party company. If you have the technical ability, you can also build your photo gallery using HTML. Transfer your photo files and pricing information to your hosting service prior to launching your e-commerce website.

How to Create Host a Website (11 Steps)


Start with a pen and paper and sketch out a site map. The map should begin with the website's home page and branch out from there. It is similar in structure to an organization chart that shows the hierarchy of a corporation. The home page is the CEO and the other pages on the site are employees.
Still using pen and paper, sketch out what the web pages will look like. Decide what elements, such as text, images and video need to be on the pages and where each element will go.
Gather the images, text, video and other elements to be placed on the page together in one place in one folder.
Choose web design software. Adobe Dreamweaver is the industry standard for professional web page design, but there are many free or inexpensive web design programs, such as NVU Open Source Web Builder and WYSIWYG Web Builder Five, which can be downloaded at no cost. These programs are fine for building personal websites.
Working from the initial sketch, lay out the web pages that comprise the site using the web design software. Start with the home page of the site, which must be named 'Index.html.' Other pages on the site can have any name the creator wants.
Using the site map as a guide, make sure the pages of the site are linked together so that users can get from one page to another.
Preview the site in multiple web browsers. The site should appear as it looks when viewed with the web design software. If any page does not look the same in a browser as it does when viewed with the web design software, edit the page until the problem is solved.

How to Create a Guest Pass for Photos to Share With Friends


Create a Flickr account. Select 'Create Your Account' on the main page of the Flickr website. You will be directed to sign up for a Yahoo! ID, if you do not already have one. Fill out the registration form and create a user name. Once you have set up an account, use your Yahoo! ID to sign into Flickr. Click on 'Personalize Your Profile' to add information to your account and change your user settings.
Upload your images to Flickr. After you add the files, organize them into separate sets. The default privacy setting for all of your newly uploaded photos is 'public.' If your album is public, you can share it by copying the album's URL that appears in the address bar of your browser and sending it to others in an email.
Change the access level of your album sets to 'private.' Click on an album set. Under the 'Batch Edit' tab, choose 'Change Permissions.' To make your album private, select 'Only You' and further specify if you want the album to be visible to friends and/or family. Select the 'Change Permissions' button to finalize your preferences.
Create a Guest Pass for others to view private albums. Click on a private album set. Select the 'Share This' button. Enter the email addresses of the recipients. Add a Guest Pass by checking the appropriate boxes. You can optionally include a personal message for your email. After you click 'Send,' a Guest Pass to view your private album will be sent to the recipients you specified. The Guest Pass will not expire until you delete it from your Guest Pass history.
