    I was either trying to get the carousel picture widget, or the single
    picture of each item to work when copying the URL from the Graphic Edge
    website. Here is a URL of one of our shirts
    www.thegraphicedge.com/designer/378331/share.. It is for my form Custer
    Raven's Fan Apparel?? I have everything else done and ready to go with the
    exception of this...

    If I understand correctly, you want to use the image from your website to display the items on your form? You will need to copy the exact url of the address and enter that URL in the image widget. To copy the url, simply right click on the image in your website, then select "Copy image address."

    Then enter the copied URL into the image widget.

    If you need further assistance, or you are referring to a different concern, please let us know.

    If you want to show a slideshow with multiple images, the image slider widget is quite easy to use:

    Copying your image URL's as described by my colleague will work for this widget.  Here is an example form with the widget:

    OK I figured out how to do that, now is there a way to add captions to
    photos so they know what is what, or use the little images next to each
    item and have them show before you click on each item the way I have firm
    set up???

    With the image slider widget it is not possible to add captions.  You would need to add the captions directly to the images.  There is also no way to show a preview.  I checked a few of our other widgets and this seems to be the case with all of our slider widgets.
