Hover over each icon to see it's short description.

Adding photos to articles:

If adding an article, only add one or two short sentences and a photo with maximum height or width of 200 pixels. If you are adding a photo, it is recommended you add 10 pixels of padding to the horizontal and vertical. Padding creates an offset buffer from your photo, and ensures your text will be legible. Static photos should be added by clicking on the "tree" icon. Photo upload size is limited to 2 megabytes.

Zoom Photos:

Add this effect by using the hsexpander icon - 2 white sheets next to the tree. The only areas you need to edit are the photo location, title, alternate text, caption, thumbnail location and size. If using the zoom veature - upload only one photo maximum width or height of 600 pixels. Use the same photo for the thumbnail, just resize to maximum of 200 pixel height.

Adding a "READ MORE" break:

After photo and 2 sentance lead in has been inserted, add a read more break directly below your photo or text. This will allow multiple articles to appear on a single page, but allow readers to access your entire submission by clicking the read more link.

Adding additional photos below the line is fine - but please limit them to a total of 4 with same dimension restrictions.
