  Normally the red x appearing rather than images is a issue with an outdated IE browser version. Please post an active link to a page or post you are experiencing this issue in.

  I have a different problem with the image on my opening page.

  How did the computer select which of the over -12 images in text to put on the opening page? In fact it is the WORST choice imaginable! I deleted the image from the text, but there it still is on the opening page.

  How do I get rid of it?

  How do I change it for a more suitable one?

  How can I choose which image to show on the opening page?

  Well, just solved it!!! I opened the pictures in the PAINT program, resized my BIG pictures from some MB to few KB (70-150) and then uploaded them, and …problem solved !
