Coding help?

I think this is a coding question. I just had a bunch of icons made for my characters, for my layout,  and I’d like to make the pictures link to their stash folders. I’ve seen this on other layouts, just have no clue how to do this myself. Any help would be greatly appreciated! Also, if you know how to do the same thing on forums, that’d be cool. I don’t know if I’d do that as often, but I’ve seen it done and think it’s neat c:

Like this? Just remove the stars:
<*a href="insert what link you want the image to lead to here"*><*img src="insert image here"*><*/a*>

Yes just like that! Thank you c:

Glad I could help :)

Ok another question about this, does the image need to be a jpg? I can't seem to get this code to work on my layout, and can't quite figure out what I am doing wrong xD

^Same as nebula, I tried this too with a .png

It either needs to be .jpg or .png for the image to work ^.^



Theres most liky a goof in the coding somewhere. Is it showing up as a ripped peice of paper? Or is it just code?

Hmm... weird. But yes, you're supposed to remove them.


Can you screenshot the code the way you typed it? Like before you pressed submit?

Mine were like Io's before. I found out my links for the image were pasting in funky. For whatever reason it was cutting out half the URL. Solving that fixed my issue. Maybe check that Io!

Oh, I also added one thing. Mine look like this now:

<*a href="where you want link to go"*>
<*img border="0"
src="link image"*>
<*/a*>

Minus the *'s. Without the border thing, mine won't show up at all

Using Culebra's code:
Screenshot before submit (On home page)
After submit

Both Links and Images in HTML need to have the " " around the URLs. 

<*a href="URL"><*img src="image link"><*/a>

Thanks you so much Sabriel, I completely forgot about the code box ♥♥♥
