How to Upload Photos to Your Article

Can I put photos in my posts and articles so that the text wraps around the image and looks professional?

Yes you can. It takes a couple of steps... but yes you can.

1. You cannot upload your photos strait from your computer to the body of your article.
2. Your photos must be uploaded to your your article by inserting the url of the photo.
3. So, your photos must already be on a website of some type.
4. It can be any website including the NAFFF Photo Gallery.
5. You may also load them on the post itself This is done in the "Attach Files" option... the photos then show up at the bottom of the post...
6. so you right click each photo... click properties... then copy the url of the photo.
7. When your typing or editing your article you will see a row of icons above your text screen along with the font icons, linc icons, etc...
8. There is a WRAP icon to the left of the smilie holding a club. That Icon looks like a photo surrounded (wrapped) by text.
9. Place your curser where you want your photo to appear in the article.
10. Click that icon. That will open an option window.
11. This is where you will type either "left" or "right". (This is the side of the article that your image will be)
12. Then click OK
13. Two sets of brackets will appear in your article. You must past the photo url within these brackets.
14. The text will wrap around the image and look very nice.
15. Click "Preview" to see how it will look.

***NOTE***

A. Your image size must be controlled. Your image should not be larger than maybe 400 pxls wide (if larger than 550 pxls it will be deleted). If your original images a too big then you must first resize them or upload them to the NAFFF Photo Gallery and copy the url of the thumb image.

B. You can only edit your article or post within the first 15 minutes of posting. So, it may be too late for you to add photos to your last article. That is no problem though. If you will email me the photos and tell me where they go, I will load them for you... as time permits.

C. Each article has one header image that you can upload directly from your computer.
