Guidelines for Uploading Files: Difference between revisions

 

==Uploading Photos==

When uploading a photo, please try to adhere to the following guidelines:

*Provide a description of the photo - as much as you know - who, what, when and where the file came from.

If your video is already uploaded to Vimeo or Youtube, you can just embed the existing video (see below for how to do that).

When uploading videos, please try to adhere to the following guidelines:

*Provide a description of the video - as much as you know - who, what, when and where the file came from.

*Please indicate copyright status of the video – if you don’t know, there is an option for that! Right under the summary box is a drop-down menu for copyright. Please select the option that best fits.

 

==Using Your Uploaded File==

Clicking this button will prompt you with several options. First, enter the name of the file you uploaded (for example, dog.png). If you want to add a caption, you can do so in the "caption" box. The "Size" box will allow you to change the size of your file, if applicable. The "Align" box will allow you to choose where on the page your file will appear- on the left side, the right side, in the center, or no specified alignment. Finally, the "Format" box will allow you to choose is you want your file to appear as a thumbnail, framed, frameless or with no options, if applicable. Once you have entered in all the necessary information, just press "Insert" and voila! Your file should appear on your page!
