There are pictures that members have already uploaded and are stored on the website.

The file list for the Italian, Spanish, Portugues, French, Deutsch, and Hebrew pages all have different pictures, so if Logo.jpg shows on the English file list, it may not appear on the Italian file list. If you would like one of the pictures on another pages file list, you will need to copy the picture and save to your hard drive and then follow step II below to upload that picture to your language's file list.

You can change the location of your picture depending on where you put the link in the article.
