Q: Start your response with a basic introduction, such as, "Dear Jacob." If the person is a colleague or professional contact, you can try a more formal greeting by using their title, like "Dear Mrs. Hardy," or "Dear Professor Thomas." Depending on the circumstances, you might want to use a formal or casual tone. "I accept your apology," or "Thank you for your apology" are appropriate formal responses for business dealings. If the apology comes from a friend or family member, you can be more informal in your response. Try, "I hear what you are saying," "Thanks," or "It's okay." If you're not ready to move forward, acknowledge their apology by stating: "I appreciate your apology, but I am unable to accept it at this time." No matter how you choose to respond, make sure it's a true reflection of your feelings. You don't want to get caught up in crafting a response that isn't actually genuine. Don't leave the person guessing. In addition to acknowledging their apology, let them know why you were offended or upset. Be honest and clear in your writing. Explain how the situation felt for you and why it impacted you the way that it did. For example, you can write: "I am glad you apologized. It really hurt my feelings when you made a joke at my expense." "It's okay. I wish you hadn't done this at all, but I'm ready to move past it." "I hear that you regret what you did. I'm trying to move past this but it has really impacted how I feel about our relationship. I will need more time to think about things." Sometimes the problem really is someone else's fault, but it may be that both parties involved made some missteps. Reflect on whether this applies to your situation and take responsibility where it makes sense. For example: You can write: "It was really unfair when you said that about me, but I should not have responded by returning the insult." Alternatively, try: "It was your responsibility to make sure things went smoothly that day, but I realize now that I should have made sure you had more help." Make it clear if you want to end the relationship with them. Or, let them know you are ready to move past the incident in question. If it is a business relationship, you may need to let the person know you will no longer be working with them. If it is a more personal relationship, you should let them know if and when you would like to see them or talk to them again. For example: For example, you can try: "I am ready to put this behind us and move forward. Why don't we get together this weekend?" Another approach is to write: "While I accept your apology, this incident has made me re-evaluate our business arrangement and I will not be renewing your contract at the end of this month." If you are telling someone that you are unable to accept their apology or continue your relationship with them, sign off with a closing that is not too familiar. Try using "Sincerely," or "Regards," in this case. For a more positive closing, consider, "Best wishes," or "Warm regards." To limit misunderstandings should the email or letter get lost, ask the recipient or the mail service to confirm receipt.
A: Open your letter with a standard greeting. Acknowledge the apology in the opening sentence. State how you feel about the situation in the body of your letter. Acknowledge your contribution to the problem if appropriate. Close the body of the letter with a clear plan for the future of your relationship. End your letter with a closing that matches the tone of your response. Mail or email the apology acceptance letter.

Q: . There are many free image hosting services, such as Picasa Web Albums, Imgur, Flickr, or Photobucket. Read the terms carefully. Some services will reduce your image quality, or take down your image if too many people view it (since this uses up the host's bandwidth). Some blog-hosting services let you upload images using the blog administrator tools. If you have a paid web host, upload the image to your own site using an FTP service. Creating an "images" directory is recommended to keep your files organized. If you want to use an image on another website, ask the creator for permission. If she grants it, download the image, then upload the image to an image hosting site. Open the HTML document for the web page where the image will be displayed. If you are trying to insert an image on a forum, you can type directly in the post. Many forums use a custom system instead of HTML. Ask for help from other forum-goers if this doesn't work. Find the point in your HTML body where you'd like to insert an image. Write the tag <img> here. This is an empty tag, meaning it stands alone, with no closing tag. Everything you need to display your image will go inside the two angle brackets. <img> Visit the web page where your image is hosted. Right-click the image (control-click on Mac) and select "Copy Image Location." You can also click "View Image" to see the image alone on a page, then copy the URL in your address bar. If you uploaded the image to an images directory in your own website, link to it with /images/yourfilenamehere. If this doesn't work, the images directory is probably inside another folder. Move it up to the root directory. As you may already know, HTML attributes go inside a tag to modify it. The src attribute is short for "source," and tells the browser where to look to find the image. Write src=" " and paste the image URL in between the quotation marks. Here's an example: <img src="http://www.exampleimagehost.com/my-cute-dog.jpg"> Technically your HTML has everything it needs to display the image, but it's best to add an alt attribute as well. This tells the browser what text to display when the image fails to load. More importantly, this helps search engines figure out what your image is about, and lets screen readers describe the image to visually impaired visitors. Follow this example, changing the text inside the quotation marks: <img src="http://www.exampleimagehost.com/my-cute-dog.jpg" alt="my dog eating a tangerine"> If the image is not important to the page content, include the alt attribute with no text (alt=""). Save the HTML file to your website. Visit the page you just edited, or refresh the page if you already had it open. You should now see your image. If it's the wrong size or you're unhappy with it for another reason, continue to the next section.
