Step 1
Create a web page in Front Page
This web page will "be" (meaning contain/display) your ezine.  Remember an HTML ezine IS a web page.  What you are reading right now -- this Certified Cyber Lesson that I have emailed to you -- was creating using Front Page. (If you don't know how to create a web page, look for another Certified Cyber lesson on that topic.)

Step 2 
Come to understand a little about "full-file paths" for images
In order for images to display in email, these images MUST be stored at a website.  (You COULD attach your images to your ezine but nobody would like that.) Because when the subscriber receives your emailed ezine, the text appears right away, but the images/logos/photos take a couple of seconds to come into view because they are 'downloading' -- just like a web page -- from where the images are stored on some web server.  The text part of your ezine doesn't need to be stored on a web server; just the images (photos, logos, graphics).

So, every image in your ezine must have a full file path to that web server -- something like:  http://www.yourwebserver.com/images/thisimage.html.  So, you'll need a web site or web hosting company,  and ftp your images to this server.  (Most ISPs give you some free room to store images/pages on their server -- ask them if you're not sure.)   Not sure how to FTP?  That was covered in another lesson.

Step 3
Verify that all images have a full file path
The easiest way to do this is to place your cursor over every image in your ezine/web page, and right click.  When you do, it brings up this box:


Select Picture Properties

Step 4
Is it full file path? 
The image below is correctly typed, because it begins with http://etc.
If you see that only the image name itself displays below (i.e., 'headergif.gif') then you'll need to type in the correct full path starting with http://etc....

Step 5
Click OK 
Does the image appear correctly in your ezine/html page?  If so, excellent!  If not, have you remembered to FTP the image file to your webserver?  Remember, the moment you make the image "full file path," it won't appear correctly unless that image has already been uploaded to the server.  Why?  Because it can't find it until it's been uploaded.  If it can't find it on the internet, it can't display it.

Step 6
Repeat procedure for all images in your ezine
Every single one...

Step 7
Repeat procedure if you have any "links"
Often in your ezine, you'll have links to other websites:  (http://www.somewhere.com).  As long as you have the http:// as part of these links, the reader of your ezine will be able to click and visit just fine.  Sometimes, however, you may want to include a link to a web page that 'continues' the story you've included the beginning of in your ezine.  Perhaps like this:
