I'm a web administrator for my school. I want to create a link on the home
page that blinks (flashes). How do I do that?

<blink></blink>

As such, it is a deprecated tag and nol longer supported by
IE.

It was never supported by IE, it was a NS only tag, but you are correct in the NS6 and up no longer
support it.

Use CSS, text-decoration: blink

This also will only work in NS browsers and most likely will
be deprecated as well.

You will need an animation image editor

PS
Don't use any blinking text or images
- can cause harm to users w/ health problems (epilepsy)
