How can I post message with externally linked graphics

Hi!
When I am composing a message I want to insert graphics like into it but do not want the graphic embedded into the e-mail but linked to it's original URL. Howver even if I type URL into the "Image location" the graphic is being embedded into the e-mail body. It was possible it earlier Netscape composers. What is the problem?
I am using Netscape 7.1

 

Just type the graphic in a URL, as a link.

 

OK, but what I want is a nice graphic header on the top of the page, not a link to it. And this header should not be embedded in the e-mail.

 

I never used all features of the old Netscape. The problem? Is to expect that a complete rewrite of the old software will do the same in the new software.
I have no idea what you were doing in NS4.x.

 

Welcome to the Forum, egov!

You want the recipient to see the graphic, yes?
Open Mail & Newsgroups
Click on: Insert | HTML

Use the HTML code for the image:

Code:

<img src= "http://server/username/imagename.gif ">

If you use ATT then an example would be:

Code:

<img src= "http://home.att.net/~egov/smiley.gif ">

This is assuming that you have uploaded the smiley.gif file to your web page.

The image will be called from the ATT web page directory.

I tried it. It still embeds the graphics. So stupid!
