How to make your image unavailable for preview in blogs?

Many a time, writers don't want the images they upload on their blog to open up in a separate tab. This, according to them, distracts the reader from the article. If you are one of them, you would like to restrict this feature so they take the following steps:

1. After you have uploaded the picture into your post, click on the Edit HTML tab of the writing area.


2. You should see code at the top of the page that looks something like this:


<a href="http://yoursiteurl.com/yourpicture.jpg"><img alt="S7302723" src="http://yoursiteurl.com/yourpicture.jpg" width="184" align="left" border="0" height="244"/></a>


3. Delete the following parts that make the image into a link.


<a href="http://yoursiteurl.com/yourpicture.jpg">

and   </a>


4. MAKE SURE you leave the img section:


<img alt="S7302723" src="http://yoursiteurl.com/yourpicture.jpg" width="184" align="left" border="0" height="244"/>


5. Preview your post.  If your image is still there and does not go to a separate page when you click on it, you did everything correctly and can save your post or continue writing it.
