This facility allows you to select a picture from your PC and upload it to the web site. You can then use the picture in a "News" item or in the banner for your web site. When the "News" page is displayed, the picture will normally show to the left of the "News" item (there are other options).

Please Note

• The format of pictures accepted:- gif and jpg, jpeg, png
• The picture SHOULD BE SCALED before use. A picture straight off a digital camera can be 4MB large or larger. This will be slow to upload and, more importantly, slow for the users of your site.
• You should have some resizing software supplied with your digital camera which you can use to resize the photograph and generally tidy up the photograph before uploading.
• Alternatively, Bridgewebs provides the option of uploading and storing the picture and then resizing it on line

  • It is not a good idea to increase a picture beyond its original size, the picture will become more blurred, but you may need these buttons to fine tune the size of the picture.
  • Click [Save] to save the picture, either with a new name or Bridgewebs will add a suffix on the end. To prevent any potential problems, pictures over 5Mb will be rejected.
• For a "News" item, a suitable size is a picture between 150 high and 250 pixels wide
• For a web site, 450 wide is probably large enough.

See [Browse Button] for more information on uploading.

N.B. When you upload a picture it is saved on the Bridgewebs site and you can actually include it directly in any "News" item with
"<" img src="/myclub/picture.jpg" title="My Picture Title" "/>"
where the picture you uploaded was called "picture.jpg".
