There is more to adding an image to your website than you may think.
The first thing to do is search for images that you want to use on your site. Make sure you are using images that are totally free to use with no water marks of copy wrights.
Here are a few good places to find images.

Once you find an image right click on it and click save image as. This will open your file manager. Change the file name to correspond with the image. The file name you give it now will be the title of the image when you upload it to your site.
Now it's time to Optimize your images.

Hi Joni,
Click on your profile, which is located at the top of the screen next to your rank. Then click, "My profile" You will see a place to add an image or there is a button that allows you to use your FB image. Click that button and your FB picture will automatically upload. Crop it and check the box that says use as my profile picture. Then click save and continue. Your image will appear as your profile picture.
All the best!

Hi Cathy,
Thank you for this very timely information. I was just reading about this very topic earlier today and my brain short circuited! Your explanation was very simple and easy to follow. I am going to add this to my favorites for later reference. You mentioned using a program called Tiny PNG. Is this a free service, or do you need to pay to use it? If so, how much? Thanks for your help!
