The website of our school, where we attended in the 1950s, was on Wikifoundry. Wikifoundry went off the air, which we found out about shortly before the closure on June 1, 2021. Everything was copied and saved as HTML.
But now it appears that the HTML page contains no photos. At the relevant location there is a link to the no longer existing http://image.wikifoundry.com/image/1/S9Lrk...64106/GW550H376.
The photos can be copied at WaybackMachine from archive.org. However, it is not possible to place the photo in the relevant place on the HTML page because of the wikifoundry link. Right-click/Inspect at the relevant location, the source page becomes visible.
Is it possible to remove just that link?
My knowledge of/about building websites is zero comma zero.

Not sure what you mean with "link" above. Do you mean the URLs of the image files, that are specified in the SRC attribute of the IMG elements? For example:

CODE
<img src="http://example.com/dog.jpg">

If you mean something else, please post a sample of the HTML.

You need to edit the SRC values of all images to reflect their new location. If the website is meant to be viewable on the web (as opposed just being kept on a local PC) you need to upload both the HTML and image files to your own webhost.

http://image.wikifoundry.com/image/1/S9Lrk...64106/GW550H376. is the hyperlink in the HTML page to wikifoundry that will be discontinued in 2021.
If you mean something else, post an example of the HTML.
I have two .jpg files on my computer. How do you import it here?
My intention is to put all the photos in the HTML pages.

That's a URL, a web address. The HTML code for a hyperlink looks like this:

CODE
<a href="http://image.wikifoundry.com/image/1/S9Lrk...64106/GW550H376">some link text</a>

However I searched for the above URL on archive.org, and it wasn't archived. Maybe some other archiving site has it. unsure.gif

Here to this forum? You can upload images and attach them to forum posts, but alas the feature doesn't always work properly. See https://forums.htmlhelp.com/index.php?showtopic=60737

HTML code/pages don't literally contain images (with some exceptions). Instead images are uploaded to the webhost as separate files. These image files can then be embedded in HTML pages by using IMG elements in the HTML code.

When viewing a finished web page in a browser it look like a single entity, but it's really a combination of an HTML file and one or more image files (and perhaps other things as well).
