Images

You may also add images (pictures) to your web page, as long as the image is in the .gif or .jpg (or .jpeg) file formats. You will not be able to use .bmp format files. The basic tag for images is <img src="location">. It is also recommended to add HEIGHT and WIDTH attributes to the IMG tag, which will allow the image to take proper proportions.

It is also recommended to use the ALT="what picture is" to tell a person what a picture is in case it is still loading or they are not viewing images. The IMG tag has no closing tag. The HTML code and what is shows are below:

<img src="http://www.winona.edu/warrior_head.gif" alt="WSU Warrior Head">
