Add Images to Content

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

  1. 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.
  2. Change the picture's size so it is no larger than 640x640 pixels.
  3. Save the picture as either JPEG, GIF or PNG format.

Step 2: Upload image

  1. Login to the n390 created site and click on the "Create Content" link.
  2. Click on "Image" link.
  3. Enter a Title in the form field.
  4. (Optional) Add the picture to a Gallery.
  5. Browse your computer and select the picture for upload.
  6. (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 the page content.

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.

  1. Login to the site and start editing a page.
  2. Put the cursor where you want to insert the image. Best to place it at the top left of the text.
  3. Click the "camera" button in the Content Editor. A form box will pop up.
  4. Select the image you want.
  5. Title and Description fields - its looks better to have a short title and no description.
  6. Choose what size you want.
  7. Select the alignment.
  8. If you want the image to act as a (hyper)link, then make selection in the Link drop-down menu.
  9. Leave the Insert mode as "Filter Tag."
  10. 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.
