Where do ZingerBug images come from?
At ZingerBug.com we make all of our own graphics.
If you see it somewhere else… they stole it from us! We do not
purchase, steal, borrow, link to, or otherwise use material that
we do not have permission to use. Some of our photographs and
clipart come from public domain sources, or sources that we have
permission to use, but the creative energy is 100% original. If
you have any reason to believe that one of our images is in
copyright violation, please contact us immediately at
webmaster@zingerbug.com.
How do I post an image?
To use one of our images, copy the codes from the
text box below the images (click anywhere in the box and all of
the codes will be highlighted, then copy them to your clipboard
by either holding down the control key and hitting the “C” key,
or by choosing “copy” from the edit menu at the top of your
browser.) Once you have copied the codes to your clipboard, you
need to paste them into your site or blog. Different sites and
blogs work differently, so it’s a little bit hard to give
specific directions for where to paste the codes. Essentially,
you need to paste them where HTML editing is allowed. For
example, in MySpace, if you want to put an image in your
profile, you go to the “edit profile” tool and then paste the
codes into the section where you want the image to appear. If
you want to send the image as a MySpace comment, bring up the
“post comment” screen of the friend you want to post to and
paste the codes there. If you’re posting to a MySpace blog, you
need to click the “view source” button in order to paste in HTML
codes. (To paste the codes, put the cursor where you want the
codes to go and either hold down the control key and hit the “V”
key, or choose “paste” from the edit menu at the top of your
browser.)
I pasted in the codes, but instead of an
image, I just get codes.
This happens when your browser doesn’t recognize
the codes provided as HTML. There can be several reasons for
this. Here are some of the most common ones.
1)
Some MySpace users disable HTML in
their comments (if the user does not wish to receive HTML
comments, you will see a note on the post comment screen stating
that the user has disabled HTML.) If the user has disabled HTML
comments, the browser will simply display the codes instead of
the picture.
2)
You may have pasted the codes into
a section that does not allow HTML editing. This is a common
problem when posting to MySpace blogs, because you have to check
the “view source” button in order to enter HTML codes.
3)
If the codes have been altered in
any way, the computer may not recognize them as HTML and will
simply display them as text. Common ways to accidentally alter
the codes include inserting spaces or returns, changing the
capitalizations, or trying to type a personal message into the
codes. If you want a message to appear below the image, paste
the codes, then go to the very end of the codes (after the final
“>” character) hit return, and then type your message.
4)
On very rare occasions we screw up
and provide faulty codes. If you believe this is the case,
please contact us immediately at
