Hi everyone!

Is this not a beautiful picture?

Did you know not only can you add pictures to your WordPress Website, you can:

  • link the pictures to wherever you want them to go
  • Use captions below your pictures
  • Wrap text around them
  • Have an explanation appear when you hold the curser over the picture
  • Set them left, center or right on the page
  • Set them to custom dimensions without any additional programs

Sounds like a lot of stuff to learn, but it is all extremely easy once you get the hang of it, and using these features in the proper way can really make a difference in how your website looks and performs.

Lets go down the list and see how easy we can use these features.

***** Note *****

The following screen shots are from the current Wordpress update. If your screen does not look like this you may have an older version.

Ready?

Lets rock!

Great post Shawn. Speaking of images, it currently won't let me upload any on Wordpress....

Why? What is it telling you?

It says "Error, please try again later". It's never done that with me before.

Some of them have started working now. I think it was just a minor WordPress glitch, as a couple of other members were also experiencing the same problem

I have had that happen in the past. Give it a bit of time, it could be a glitch that fixes itself. :) If it does not work by tomorrow, make out a ticket on it if you can.
