Can I put graphs and /or pics in my paper to support data?

If I am using an online source with no author or page #, when Im citing it in my paper what do I put in parenthesis?

Amy you sure can put graphs, etc. in your paper but they would be attached at the end (separate pages, etc.) I believe.

Unless it's original research I would put it in appendices at the end. In a short thesis like you're doing I don't really know if they are necessary. In your lit review, just write about the charts...You don't really have to insert them to refer to them...Just like, 'As Smith and Smith found, 78% of 8th graders spend 20 hours a week online.' or whatever.

Put in graphs etc. This helped fill up some pages on my masters thesis and it looks good. Good luck, mine took forever and a day to get done... I was so relived when it was finished. I remember I did not care what time I got it done and binded at Kinko's! ( We had to have a special binding out on it.) But I was THRILLED it was finished. Good luck!

So can I put in within the paper or not?

I wouldn't mind 'beefing' up the length of my paper at all

I'm not sure what you mean by what chapter?

I am in an online class called project seminar at stony brook and my semester is over on Saturday!!

I'm sure online sources are fine as long as they are reliable. This is the way the world is moving towards.

Yes you can put graphs in, just remember if you got the graph from somewhere, you need to cite it. Good luck w/ your thesis!
