Add a Picture to a MySpace Page

You can add images to your Myspace profile in the "Photos" section but if you want to show them off on your front page, you'll need to learn a little HTML.

Steps

  1. Upload the image to an image hosting site like Photobucket or Flickr.
  2. Get the full URL for the image. Right click (or control click on a Mac) on the image and select "Copy Image Location." Paste it onto a word processing document. The complete URL should look something like this: http://www.domain.com/category/picture.jpg
  3. Edit your profile and go to the spot where you want to insert the image.
  4. Insert the image with HTML as follows:

    <img src="INSERT%20URL%20HERE">
  5. Preview the page. If the image is too big, you can adjust the size:

    <img src="INSERT%20URL%20HERE">'''width=200'''<nowiki> />

    Change the number until the image is a good size. You can also adjust the height in addition to the width, but sometimes that can distort the image:

    <img src="INSERT%20URL%20HERE" width="250">'''height=200'''<nowiki> />

Tips

Warnings

  • It is a common misconception that you can copy images as long as you do not profit from them. This is not true! Always check to make sure that you have permission to post the picture. Failure to do so could put you in court!
