Pictures
Okay, first you have to have the picture stored somewhere and it can't be Webshots.

For instance, the address http://jeremy.qn.net/greenjello.jpg is a picture stored on my site. To make it show somewhere here, this is what you do, you type in:

<img src="url here"&ft

So to link to the picture above it would look like this:

<img src="http://jeremy.qn.net/greenjello.jpg"&ft

When typed in it does this:

Dangit!
Getting the < and the > to print is a trick as the server thinks they are computer code. Here we go, one more time:

So to link to the picture above it would look like this:

thanks, but I'm afraid I'll screw that up. The link that I have to the picture also has the long-ass article that I already posted. I'm afraid if I did it, I'd end up posting the article twice and PO everybody. But now I know for the future.

Post the link to the picture here and i'll post it, show you how.
Dub
12:45:15 AM
4/01/04


Okay, to get that picture to show, first you need to find the address. To find the URL right click on the picture and choose "properties" from the menu. A box will pop up with some info about the picture, one of the items on the box will say URL/location. Copy that.

http://nac.tamu.edu/x075bb/pics/iceborer.jpg

To get it to show simply use the img tag I showed you above.



Now note that linking to a picture won't always work, like at webshots. Some servers have protection from external linking because it uses their bandwidth (money). Sometimes when you post a picture it will work for a little while then disappear. Other times it won't work because you are in a passworded area.

Scorch, not criminal psych which I know is your area...just basic psych...maybe disorders? I just know some people who act very strange and I'm curious if there is a deeper reason. Sometimes they are very irrational, defensive, etc. where a normal person isn't. So yeah, that kinda psych.

Someone could write a thesis about abnormal psych based on the people who post to this board easily. Hell you could write one about Marvin Gardens alone.

Dub, I've often wondered why it's college-age people who seem to encounter the largest number of strange people. I know that the years from when I was 18-23, I met more weird people then than any other time of my life, and probably more than the whole rest of my life.

I think more than anything, it's accountable to three reasons:

1) That's when people are leaving the controlling influence of their parents for the first time, and they are "acting out" in a sense, exceeding the limits their parents would have placed on them earlier in their lives.

2) College pulls together people from very diverse regions and backgrounds, leading to a wide variety of behaviors that are new to the people involved.

3) As weird people like me get older, they get better at hiding the fact that they're weird.

So consider those factors as you witness the people you encounter exhibiting strange behavior.

Or, I supposed it's possible they were molested as children.

Bitpusher, I'd have to agree with your first two points, as for the third, it should read: Alcohol and marijuana.

You can look through the DSM,.. it describes every type of psych disorder out there.

The "Daft, Sick, Mad" book...
bitpusher

Is that really a book? Who's the author and how much does it cost. As some of the others were saying, abnormal psychology sounds fun, any suggestions on those kinda books?

Diagnostic Statistical Manual or somethng like that. It details out symptoms and stuff for all the disorders.

Like a guide book for shrinks.
