Help on DW with posting images, pretty please?

[red_satin_doll]

Can anyone tell me how to post images to my DW posts?  Or, add images to DW posts when I begin with LJ?  When I posted on LJ about winning at the SunnyD fanfic awards on Monday, the text transferred to DW but the image/award didn't.  (There is this icon for "image" on the rich text version and it wants a url.  Most of the images I post don't have url's, and I don't see an option for simply downloading from my harddrive.)

I guess the overarching lesson here is - originate posts at DW first?  ( "But Mommy, I like LJ.  I'm used to it and it's pretty!"  I never claimed to be logical.)

Thanks. I'm still not sure I understand but that's totally my fault, not yours, trust me. (I can read directions on how to do stuff, such as with computers, but once I get it, I get it. I was like that with beadwork and now cooking for a long time.)

Would an example help?

This is the code from a banner of mine:

(I added a space between < img and / > so that you could actually see the code.)

Examples are to the good!

You need a space between that last set of quotes and the slash mark.

Let me know if it works at last!
