How to Insert Images into Schoolwires Webpages You can insert images into your Web pages from a variety of sources, including the Internet, digital photos you’ve taken, or pictures that have been scanned in and saved to your computer. Click on the Insert Image button in the toolbar of the Site Manager. At this window make sure Select New Image ... is selected (for now) and click Next . Click on Browse to find the clip art image you want to use or upload 1. Browse to your saved image as you would if you were opening a file. NOTE: Images must be saved locally before they can be used with Schoolwires. Locally means the image must be on the hard drive, Server (ex. S drive), USB Flash drive, floppy disk, or CD. Images cannot be copied and pasted onto your Web page in Schoolwires. Navigate to the location of your image. Click on the file name and click Open . You will now see the path (location) of the image you’re going to upload. Click Next. Give your image ALT TEXT (Alternate text tells visitors what the picture is supposed to be if it doesn’t appear on their screen, which happens from time to time on individual computers). You should see your image in the right side of the next window.

Some Websites offer copyright-free images and others do not. If an image is not copyright-free, you must obtain written permission from the copyright owner to re- post the image on your Web page. Just because an image shows up in the Google search DOES NOT mean it is copyright-free. IMPORTANT: You must have parental permission before posting pictures of your students on the Internet. Your lab assistant will have the computer use forms with this important information. Use tables with a border set to 0 to help with page layout. This will help to ensure that the text and image(s) will show up in the correct place when viewed using different browsers (i.e. Microsoft Internet Explorer, Safari, FireFox, Opera, etc.) Remember that your table’s total width should not exceed 550 pixels, and the total width of the individual cells within your table must equal that same 550 to maintain a normal appearance of the content layout on your Web page. .
