Dear colleagues,

Could you share your experience how to insert a picture in the field "About me". I read the tips but I didn't catch the idea. Is it necessary to create firstly a web site through the site creator and then upload a picture and then give the link to the folder?

Thanks In Advance

Dear Oleksandr,

You need to have your image placed at some server, and then use the html tag:

"img src="http://www.proz.com/image.gif"" (add < at the beginning and > at the end) where you change the www part into a link to your photo

If you don't have your own server, you can try some of the free ones, but you must check if the site allows for hot linking and if they keep the image permanently (they can, for example, delete it after 30 days).

Could you suggest me free servers, please? Oct 15, 2009

Dear Karol,

Thanks for your answer. Now, I understand. Maybe you could suggest me some free servers more or less reliable to upload a picture.
TIA
