The way I do it, if it is commendable?

1)Is to upload a front and back cover picture to the registry slot for the book.

2)Then copy this url or code into the edit set description.

3)Then open the tap with the book pics that are uploaded, see #1 

4) copy that image address by right clicking and past it over the bold, starting at http, and then right before the first quotation mark, 

5) then you can adjust the height and width by playing with the numbers inside the quotation sets.

Hope this helps somewhat, I haven't won yet, but I'm hoping I've done ok

I'm not to sure how to do gifs

I'm also not sure how to do photos or images that aren't apart of the uploaded books to the book slots....

Maybe @Iconic1s can help?

this is all I get when trying to get an image from the internet.

I'm sure there is someway to save it to the desktop to get a better "image address" to copy and paste into the "code" i displayed earlier,

I've just never had it explained to me  looks like iconic1s images other than books slot pics are uploaded for imgur, an I'm not sure if that is the secret? to have a 3rd party hosting site? idk

I finally opened an imgur account since it's free. Using the tools you've showed me that I relate in thread, I was able to add am extra short description and mostly three extra pics for letters a through d of the registry 😁 I think I did it right, I didn't want too long of stuff, cause I wanted easy reading. I remember people liked the uniformity of how I had it, it was simple, I'm trying to recapture that. For example see e through z 😂

Here is a link to the set that I am modifying with the kindness of you all: https://comics.www.collectors-society.com/registry/comics/PeopleSetDetail.aspx?PeopleSetID=132861

It is far from finished.  I will be adding more pics of comics and other subjects.  This is far from done but any critiques or comments would be much appreciated.

Great set and awesome description. Must have been amazing being a Guard at The Tomb of the Unknown Soldier!  I was able to visit a few times and was always blown away by the discipline and the precision!  Thanks for your service!  Set looks amazing so far and if you are still working on it I can’t wait to keep an eye on it and see how it evolves.

@Iconic1sThank you very much!!!  It’s slow going but it’s coming along.  Imgur is super slow with editing pictures.  This has been a lot of trial and error.  Makes it even harder when “coding” is not my strong suit.  I do appreciate all the help you guys have given me.

Now I’m having issues loading an image.  Im using the same line of code and all I see is the “name of the picture” a question mark and an outline.  I am using safari and also used Firefox with the same result.  I tried the old images that I’ve already upload and they still work.  Don’t know what the issue is.

Make sure you only copy and pasted the image address between the correct spots in the code, I believe right after src= ... Up to the first quotation

@Iconic1s if I run out of my own pics? Since imgur is free, is it a no no to use pics already available?

I’m not sure. Even if it was okay I’d be afraid of the owner editing or deleting it and it messing you up.

I tried to pick generic things like movie posters and titles, most of the time, it didn't always work out that way, but idk, rather than search upload what I'd use that is already there? idk, I hope I did ok

I’m not sure. The only issue I ever had with loading I think was caused by the image in imgur being too huge. Once I downsized the image in imgur it resolved.  Not sure if that is your issue though.
