and the necessary code: <A HREF=http://www.yahoo.com/picks/#list>Yahoo's Picks of the Week List</A>

and the necessary code: <A HREF=http://www.yahoo.com/picks/#list><IMG ALIGN=MIDDLE SRC=yahoo.gif border=1><P>Yahoo's Picks of the Week List</A>

Note: You can eliminate the border around the image by using border=0 in the tag.
