Two methods:

1. Use a simple text file, name it filename.txt and put it on your
homepage.

2. Write an html document with the pictures in it:

      I. Copy all the pictures to the document.
     II. Change all   &   characters to   &
    III. Change all   <   characters to   &lt;
     IV. Change all   >   characters to   &gt;
      V. Add   <pre>   at the beginning of the document.
     VI. Add   </pre>   at the end of the document.
    VII. Add whatever other html you like to the document.
   VIII. Save as filename.html (or filename.htm on some older computers)
         and put it on your homepage.
