hi guys

sorry if this sounds like a bit of a noob question.

i have been learning html this week doing a few hours on an evening.

i am currently learning about different ways in which to link infomationas you would expect im trying it out myself as i go.

my question is when using html to creat an image as a link in the browser and you use the.
<p>Create a link of an image:
<a href="default.htm">
<img src="smiley.gif" alt="HTML tutorial" width="32" height="32" />
</a></p>
the image src is obviousley were the infomation comes from so would any image i src this way need to be uploaded to the net first using somthing like image shack for example?
or is it possible to use say an image or photo with the file destination on your desktop but i carnt see how that would work on the net.

again im sorry if it sounds like a dumb thing to ask the tutorial has not yet covered this yet and i just fancied adding a picture link to my test page now i have the code.

thanks again guys for your help
 
these look very complicated and currently beyond my understanding i will revert to the infomation you have given me here billy once i have sucssfully expanded my knowledge.

thank you for the infomation it is greatly appreaciated
