Resize your image in a paint program... style codes can't resize images. if you had like a div layer to place your image, with the code <img src="image.jpg" width=200 height=260>, then placed your text on top of that, that might work, but I'd simply resize it. If it's a really large image, many people (like me) will be annoyed that it takes a long time to load, and making it smaller would make it load faster, too.

ok ok ok, so i woudl tell you how to do it, except for you are linking to someone elses picture, kind of unethical in the computer world, so yeah. upload your own picture to yru own server and someone might help you out a bit better. if you cant upload yoru own picture then i suggest you get a better server... :) umm i dont mean to be rude or anything, i just hate when people try to link to my pictures off of my server, cause its my bandwidth that they are using...ok. have a nice day. :)
