Hi there I need help with inline citations I am unclear how to do this? I tried to do it using <ref> but it inserted all of my references and not just the one I wanted to use?

Regarding the images, if you own the copyright and are willing to release them under a free license that allows everybody to re-use and modify them for any purpose, including commercial purposes, you can upload them to the Wikimedia Commons via their UploadWizard.
