The two things I found most irritating while experimenting with the block editor were resizing the image and being unable to position the image where I wanted it on the page or post. By default it positioned the image on the first line if the paragraph. Whether this has changed in updated versions of the block editor I don't know, as I don't use it.

Unless you are using the Gutenberg Block Editor, it's easier to change the size of the image in the text editor rather than keep clicking on the actual image and scaling it. Just make sure you increase or decrease the width and height by the same number of pixels to keep the perspective. Also you can position the image wherever you want it on your page or post.

Below is an image of the actual HTML code you will see after you have inserted the image into your page or post and the image as it appears on my site:


And this is how it would appear after I reduced the width and height by 100 pixels:

That's about it for editing site content images. I hope you found it helpful or enjoyable, if you diid a comment/like, good or bad, would be much appreciated

If you have any questions regarding this tutorial I will do my best to answer them wherever possible. Thank you once again for taking the time to view the tutoorial

Hi Brian,

Thank you very much! Your tutorial was very helpful and I have it bookmarked.

I chose the 2nd method for now... but I am going to do the 1st method too.

A couple of years ago, I found a mini free Photoshop software... I'm sure I saved it. I'll look for it...

How are you doing? I hope you had a good summer.

Have a blessed weekend, Brian!

Regards,
Monica

Thank you Brian. Just what I needed as I was trying to use Windows Paint to edit an image. And failing. So I will experiment and practice with GIMP.

Thank you Harry, very nice explanation. To be honest, I didn't know that I can save the image straight from the image content, I always save one from Google as I didn't find it there . Thank you.

Hi, thanks for the comment, Angel, glad it helped. Wherever possible steer clear of Google images. Even using the advanced mode showing images as being copyright free, they may contain some hidden restrictions such as attribution, personal use only, etc. If you do use them always check the terms of use.

I don't create content, I only use site content images, as if you can't find copyright free images applicable to your niche there, it's unlikely you'll find them anywhere on free image sites, or even if you did, it could take many hours of searching..

Thank you, Harry, for your reply, I always check for copywriting and if it is it didn't let me download it. straight just like this. Thank you. I saw when I open on the right corner of the image, the image open onto another site, ok, maybe I should check this closer. honestly, I am a v much google image user I know is not so good but...is like this bcs as I said I couldn't find what I want in here.
