@ConorauthorDec 09.2003 — #ill try that

@pyroDec 09.2003 — #No, it should actually be:

[code=php]."<img src="".$_POST['image']."" style="margin-left: 20px;">n";[/code]

@pyroDec 09.2003 — #My bad. I didn't look at how you were doing the echo - you will want to get rid of the ; at the end of line 7:

[code=php]<?php
 echo
 "<html>"
 ."<body>"
 ."<body bgcolor='gray' text='maroon'>"
 ."<title>IGN Image Maker</title>n"
 ."<img src="".$_POST['icon']."" style="margin-left: 20px;">n"

@pyroDec 09.2003 — #No need to be echoing out all that HTML. You guys were on the right path earlier, but gave it up:

[code=php]<html>
 <head>
 <title>IGN Image Maker</title>
 </head>
 <body style="background: url('http://nucleus.ih0p.com/iconthing2.gif'); background-repeat: no-repeat">
 <br>
 <br>
 <br>
 <br>
 <img src="<?PHP echo $_POST['icon']; ?>" style="margin-left: 20px;">
 </body>
 </html>[/code]

That will be quite a bit closer. Just start using valid HTML and it will be even better.
