I can type my text here. To add a photo, I click on the BROWSE button below…
A window pops open to search my hard drive for the graphic file…
Choose a file, click open, then click UPLOAD.
I put my cursor where I want the photo to appear, then click the Send to Editor button and the image shows up here:
Click the tree icon to adjust the photo. Voila!
Let’s add a link back to funbeach.com. First, highlight the word or photo you want to turn into a link: funbeach.com. Click the link icon. Fill out the form, choosing whether the link should open in the same window or a new window, then click the insert button. Voila!
Now we can Save and Continue Editing (keeps us on this page but saves our work, or simply Save (saves it as a draft to come back to later and gives us a fresh posting window) or Publish (makes this blog post live to the public).
The other tools above should look familiar to you. If you want more tools, click the strange icon on the right end… for an additional row of tools.
