Adding Pictures AND Text
Posted Thursday, August 13, 2009 02:04 PM

To have both text and pictures in the same post, choose the TABLE SYMBOL from above; it's the 4th symbol from the right. (It looks like a rectangle divided into smaller rectangles with the entire top section filled with blue.)

A TABLE PROPERTIES pop up box will appear. The only necessary boxes to fill in are "rows" (Indicate how many) and "columns" (Indicate how many.)

For example, if you have one picture and accompanying text, you would want 1 row and 1 column, forming 2 boxes side by side. If you have 2 pictures and 2 text paragraphs, you may want 2 rows and 2 columns, forming 4 boxes, 2 underneath 2 others. As always, you must be able to find the exact location of the desired picture on your computer. Usually it will be in MY PICTURES.

To PLACE TEXT, put the cursor in the box where you desire it and type what you wish.

To PLACE a PICTURE, put the cursor in the box where you desire it and:

1. Click on the IMAGE ICON (the little yellow square in the editor box above. It's at  the top left and to the right of the word "source.")

2. In the pop-up, click BROWSE, find your picture, and click on the picture.

3. Click on UPLOAD NOW and then OK when you are told it's uploaded, and you will see your image in the review box.

4. Click OK at the bottom of the IMAGE BUTTON box, and your picture will appear in your chosen box.

7. Click PREVIEW to see how your post will look.

8. Click SAVE when complete.

Once your post is saved, you can edit or delete your own message.
