How do I add images to my pages?

You can format most every text box with HTML or Textile, two common styling languages for websites.

You can find HTML help many places, online or with books (even a HTML for Dummies type of book will be of help to you). You can do more with HTML, but it can be more difficult to learn.

The basic HTML code for an image is:

<img src="http://your.image.address">

Textile is a streamlined method that is more like natural typing. On your locallygrown website, in the About page help (the blue question mark at the upper right) is a link to Textile help, and that page links to a more extensive resource with examples for image formatting.

The basic Textile code to add an image is:

!http://your.image.address!

The images, no matter which type of formatting you use, need to be on the web somewhere already. You can use the "Manage Documents" section (located in your Market Manager admin box) to upload images for use elsewhere on the site, and then it will give you the address you need for the uploaded image for use with either HTML or Textile.
