Hi Rockyar Sorry, got distracted by the birth of our beautiful baby daughter Billie. Yay. Anyway, pictures . . . Here's a typical link for an image, which includes the file name, the position left right or center, a frame if required and a caption. For example, a picture of Oneroa could be uploaded by typing or copy-and-pasting into the edit page the following:

[Image:Oneroa.jpg|left|frame|The view down Ocean View Road in Oneroa]

ONLY, USE DOUBLE BRACKETS - I couldn't here or it would have created the link and then you couldn't have read the code.

Then save the page, click on the link you have created and browse to where you have the picture saved. Be careful to get the picture name exactly right and include the extension .jpg

Hit upload.

Make sure your pics aren't too big in size or file size. The site tends to work better with smaller pics, say 12cm for the longer dimension. Make sure they're 72 dpi as well.

Let me know how it goes. hackademic 22:47, 19 March 2008 (NZST)
