Upload Image
Browse to the file on your computer and open. There are several ways to adjust the image:
- Auto-resize large images – forces the image to be contained within the actual width of the page.
- Auto-optimize to 60% quality – adjusts the quality of the image to make it faster to download (lower quality = faster download).
- Change width to ___ pixels – use one of two sizes: 250 for smaller images if you want text to wrap around or 450 if the image is to appear the full width of the page. You can always shrink down once the image is on your page.
- Change height to ___ pixels – the height will automatically adjust when width of image is changed (do not adjust both the width and the height otherwise the image will be distorted).
Image Properties
