    How do I code for an image that shows up when my page is pasted
    somewhere? like facebook, twitter, etc...

    see my header so far ...

    I viewed your Web page with SeaMonkey. I right-clicked and selected
    Select All from the context menu. Then I right-clicked again and
    selected Copy from the context menu.

    I opened Word and selected paste. The images -- including the icons at
    the top and working-with-chemicals.gif in full color -- appeared with
    the Web page's text. Some images were sized differently than in the Web
    page, and working-with-chemicals.gif was not animated. (I do not think
    my older version of Word can support animated images.)

    Thank You !!!!

    My CSS is setup to resize my images considering browser window size.

    Also once, Microsoft agreed and validated a bug report that there were
    CSS/gif problems with Edge. This was years ago ...

    the CSS/gif problem only happened when using a stylesheet, not inline style

    the gif wouldn't animate

    I don’t think you really mean pasting your page. Rather, I guess you are referring to what happens when someone includes (typically, by pasting)
    the address (URL) of your page in a posting in social media. For
    example, Facebook then makes the address a link and shows a preview of
    some kind, typically including the domain name and the title of the
    page, but might also include an image.

                <meta property="og:type" content="website" />
                <meta name="robots" content="nofollow"> content="https://www.dalekelly.org/" />
                <meta property="og:description" content="A place for me to
    share my thoughts." />
                <meta property="og:title" content="Dale's Website" />

    Facebook has been reported to use OG metadata. (Twitter behaves
    differently.) But there is nothing image-related here. To suggest that
    an image be shown, you could try

    <meta name="og:image" content="https://www.dalekelly.org/yourimage.png">

    https://meetedgar.com/blog/facebooks-new-link-previews-need-know-2018/ https://developers.facebook.com/docs/sharing/webmasters/

                <meta name="robots" content="nofollow"

    You are telling indexing robots that they should not follow any links on
    your page. So if, say, Google indexing robot somehow finds your page, it
    will (being a well-behaving agent) not use any links there to find more
    of your (or other people’s) pages to index. So this is generally a very
    bad idea.

    I forget the reason I did this

    might undo it based on you suggestions

    I had the path wrong

    <meta property="og:image" content="https://www.dalekelly.org/images/shave_haircut.png">

    used "meta property" instead of "meta name"

    picture shows up in Facebook but is cropped in a way?

    this addition prevents posts in Twitter?

    I don't use Twitter much since I only have two followers and they can
    see my website address in my profile

    but would like to prevent the crop in Facebook

    will give "meta name" a try ...

    Without the final "/" Twitter doesn't allow even a post

    with the "/" I get what I had before, looks like a gray-scale default image
