Putting an image in your headline
- Putting an image in your headline is tricky. The first problem to overcome is that there is a fifty-character limit.
- You can insert the <img ...> code straight in there but that tends to use a lot of space up, so I recommend using the alternative listed here.
- The first thing you'll need to do is obtain the URL of the image (if it's already uploaded - if not, upload, then
get the URL). You can obtain the URL by right-clicking the image and clicking properties.
- While the properties box is open, copy the URL and the width and height of the image into notepad.
- Go to edit your profile, and click 'edit' next to your headline.
- The chances are your image's URL is too long to fit into the fifty-character limit alongside the rest of the code for the image tag, so what we will do here is insert a HTML element that we will style with CSS in a place where we have more room. Insert this code and submit it:
<div class=img1></div>
- Now go to edit your 'About Me' section. Copy the following code into the section, and insert the width, height and URL of your image into the relevant places.
