How to upload photos
- If you aren't already, please login and click "Edit" under the blue page button
- Position the cursor in your text where you want the photo to go
- Click the picture button
on the toolbar.
- You can either browse the clipart, etc, which is sitting on the webserver already. Or click the browse button to find photos to upload from your own computer.
- Before you upload a photo, you should mouse over it, or right click then 'properties', to find out how big it is. If the photo is too big, then our system will automatically shrink it for you, but uploading it will take a long time.
- It's best if you shrink your photos first. Photos should be about 50k filesize, but definitely no more than 100k in size.
- The pixel size should be approximately 300x300 pixels or thereabouts. 300 pixels is about half the width of an ordinary page.
- You can use your MS Image Viewer/Editor to "compress" your photos "for web"
- Once you have selected a photo, its filename will be displayed in the box in the photo wizard. Click upload, and it will automatically upload onto the web server in about 10-30 seconds (depending on filesize).
- You will then have the option to resize the photo more, or "use this photo" to use the photo in your page.
- You are then given further options (you can first enter a URL if you want to link the photo to a website,or you can change the alignment of the photo to the right, if you want to position the photo to the right of your text etc.)
- Click save on your page, and then "view changes" to see the photo appearing in your page on your website.
