How to upload a Picture into the Members Gallery

Check you are logged in (once you have done this it normally logs you in automatically thereafter)

How can you tell? ...If your user name appears in the left menu right below Contact Us then you are logged in.
If not, then go to Forum & Login and log in.

(Note – there are some size restrictions for photos – we don’t want files bigger than about 0.7MB or 700kB, as this is adequate for screen display. Most digital photos are bigger than this, and you will need to use software on your computer to reduce the size. If you want to put up a photo and you can’t make it smaller, email it to greg.ewing@ist.co.nz and I will reduce its size and upload it for you.)

The website will in the future do the down-sizing for you, but right now it is not.

· Just below your login name in the menu, pick Create Content, then Image
· Type a brief name for the image in the Title box
· Browse to where the image is in your files, and pick Open
· Now the name is in the image box, pick Upload and wait until the progress bar completes, and a preview of the image shows
· Now enter the title again in the MouseOver Title box, so people can see what it is by moving the mouse over the picture
· Scroll down the page until you see the Submit button, and pick that.
· The picture is now live!
