Inserting images in MySource is similar to inserting an image into a Word document.

In the WYSIWYG orHTMLArea editor, click on the small Insert Image icon

The image below shows the Insert Image icon in the WYSIWYG editor.

The insert image icon 

Select the image to use and to give it some attributes

You can select:

  • an image that has already been uploaded to MySource, or
  • an image file from your hard drive or network drive to upload and attach. Remember to click the Upload button after making your selection!

The insert image dialog box

Make sure you upload an image in a web compatible format, either GIF, JPG or PNG. You should also optimise your image for the web prior to uploading it, so it will not take too long to display.
