How to make a clickable picture link

How to make a picture (an image, photo or screenshot) clickable, that is, become a hyperlink.

The first thing is you must get the picture up on the web. This you can do by uploading to Photobucket.

You can choose one of the billions pictures they have or if you have an account or open an account (its free) you can upload an image.


Once you upload or select an image you will get code for the image in four formats you must select HTML.

So for this we will use this image.



When you click this image it will lead you to Photobucket.com.
So we gotta change the direction.

This is the Html for this picture its the same as the code you use sending any pictre comments in Myspace etc...

We are interested in the address http:// photobucket.com.

http://photobucket.com" target="_blank">

The address determines were the picture leads to when clicked.
So we simply change it to were we want the picture to lead to.

In This case we will change it to http:// spiceyourblog.info :
