Adding pictures into your content is fairly easy, especially if you follow the steps below. The process involves uploading a picture and linking to it within the content text.
Step 1: Prepare the image
- Start out with a high-quality picture if you can. Then use some kind of picture editing software (Photoshop, Paint, etc.) to crop, highlight, etc.
- Change the picture's size so it is no larger than 640x640 pixels.
- Save the picture as either JPEG, GIF or PNG format.

Step 2: Upload image
- Login to the n390 created site and click on the "Create Content" link.
- Click on "Image" link.
- Enter a Title in the form field.
- (Optional) Add the picture to a Gallery.
- Browse your computer and select the picture for upload.
- (Optional) Type a long descripton in the "Body" section.
Step 3: Add image to content
Now that you have your image upoaded on the website server, you can insert it anywhere in a pages content. Yes, reusing the image in other pages is fine.
Note that an image can only be placed in one of four spots on the page: Left, Right, Center and None. Selecting "None" does not specify the position and lets the web browser choose instead.
- Login to the site and start editing a page.
- Put the cursor where you want to insert the image. Best to place it at the top left of the text.
- Click the "camera" button in the Content Editor or the picture icon below the Body form field. A form box will pop up.
- Select the image you want.
- Title and Description fields - its looks better to have a short title and no description.
- Choose what size you want.
- Select the alignment.
- If you want the image to act as a (hyper)link, then make selection in the Link drop-down menu.
- Leave the Insert mode as "Filter Tag."
- Click "Insert"
You should now have a place-holder for the image. Getting the text to wrap around the picture can be tricky, so you may want to experiment.
