Thanks Ron for the comments.
"UGH!" is correct. It seems like too much to handle for WorldConnectTree
and the gedcom feature. A couple pictures maybe, but not for a large
volume.
I do also use the Freepages for the same file created by using Legacy Web
Pages creating feature. Pictures are displayed there OK and automatically
included
Thanks all, will stick to the simple gedcom for WorldConnectTree and
separately the Legacy Web Pages routine for other site postings.

Subject: RE: [LegacyUG] Legacy Gedcom preparation ? ?
Since I last replied, Mark Lang kindly sent me the article from Rootsweb.
It seems to me that no changes to Legacy are necessary, although I do have
a couple of points. Firstly, the picture must already be on a web server
for Rootsweb to access it and the full URL (ie. commencing "http://"; )
placed in any of the Notes in Legacy. So WorldConnect visits that site,
picks up the picture and places it in your Notes.
Secondly the article states that the URL should be enclosed in the html
tags "<" and ">". For use in placing an URL in its own web pages Legacy
uses "«" and "»" ie. Alt+174 and Alt+175 but these brackets and their
contents are ignored in exporting to Gedom 5.5. If one compiles Legacy web
pages and also WorldConnect it would mean having both URLs in the Notes
which would not look particularly good on the Legacy web pages, or changing
the brackets depending on how it is to be used - UGH! if there are a lot.
