Insert/Edit Image - To insert an image, place the cursor in the desired location and press this button. A pop-up dialog displays that lets you enter in the Image URL and other information about how the image will display.

You will then need to specify the URL of the image. To find out the URL and to use it to specify your image, use the instructions below.

• Find the image you want to put into your document
• Right click on it and select "Properties" or look for "Location of Image" something to that effect
• You will see a "location" property displayed, eg something like http://itsartnotstuff.com/media/4/artWork/23_photo.jpg
• Drag the mouse over this property to select it
• Click control-c to copy it
• Now go into the page you are editing and position the cursor where you want the image to be (I suggest you actually have preselected the location and positioned your cursor there from the outset)
• Click the "image" button
• Past the URL you just copied into the "image URL" box - ie click in the box then press control-v.
• Now enter a description and a title for the images - this is important if you want your page to be friendly towards users of text readers and other assistance-type software
• Click "insert" to place your image into your document

If the image is on your PC and you need first of all to upload the image file to the website.

Note that when you click the "image" button there is also a tab which lets you control the "Appearance" of the image. The alignment property is quite useful it you want the words to "wrap around" the image.  You can also control the size of your image (but see the note below).

Image sizes

Your site probably limits how big an uploaded file can be.  If you encounter problems with this, you will need to resize your image before you upload it.

It is important that images are correctly sized for our website.  You may click on the "Constrain Proportions" checkbox and adjust either the width or the height, with the other dimension adjusting accordingly to maintain the same screen proportions. Or, leave "Constrain Proportions" unchecked and adjust the width and/or the height independently, stretching the image horizontally or vertically.

DahDahhhh

Always glad for the feedback. 

Both membership subscriptions are Free.  During initial programming, we just distinguised the mini subscription (so to speak) by limiting the number of image upload, blogging and a few other features.  It might be something that we will look at in the future if enough interest is expressed.

As always, Luv Art!
