Hi, I am playing an online survivor game and my tribe has to make a flag as an image, and jpeg it and post it to the discussion board, which I guess means it has to be in some kind of code. So far, none of my tribe mates know how to do this so we are all asking our friends how to do it. We need to have the flag posted by Monday at six and we have to work on it as a team. It has to have an image, which we think a sea lion would be good as they are bountiful in Paracus, which is the name of our tribe. The flag has to have all our tribe members names on it as well. Each tribe member should be able to choose their color for their stripe or their name or however we are doing it. Anyhow, does anyone know how to make a flag image, jpeg it and post it to a message board? I am familiar with digital photography uploading, resizing, and jpeging and so forth.

This webpage seems to have some basic info on adding pictures with code. But you will need to upload the pic to a photo hosting site and then get that exact url to get it to work right. http://www.davesite.com/webstation/html/chap04.shtml

The game is already in progress and is by invitation only from the host. I would be glad to let him know you are interested in playing the next game but if you want him to find you, make a myspace page and join the survivor fan club.

If any of your tribe have Microsoft Publisher then this would be a good place to start. Open a blank publication and set the page size according to the dimensions you require, so if you are creating a flag with a ratio of 3 X 4 then choose something like 300 X 400 to have room to work. You can add any images or text that you like and then save the publication as a jpeg image. Import the image into any image editing program and resize it accordingly. You should also be able to do this with Corel Draw.

I made you a graphic and code to copy/paste, but this script will not let me post it for you. Some help forum, huh? If you want, you can add me and I'll try messaging it to you. It has your seal and your Paracus name on it ;)

You need to find a photo hosting site. Photobucket is usually a good one. It think I understand what you mean by code which is why it needs to be on a hosting site. I will see if I can find the html code to actually put a photo on a board.

hay try using some grapics software such as a adobe photoshop or some thing like that to create a flag type image and save it in a JPEG format.. then you can use a software called as image resizer to resize it to any size you want.. you will find it in most of the mobile software sites where people wanna resize the largest image to resize to the mobile image size..
