Images - where do I put them ?

Post by Brigitte »

Hello,

Slowly  - very slowly  - I am getting on with the CMSMS, and now my problem is, that I cant find out where to place images (.gif or .jpg) ! Should it be on the content page ? Or on the stylesheet ? Or on the template itself ? And should it be with the usual tag  ?

I may sound confused - and I am ....

The answer is simple - you can do, what you want.
Should it be on the content page ? Or on the stylesheet ? Or on the template itself ?
Images for content should be placed in content pages, images for use in templates could be in template.
And should it be with the usual tag  ?
Once again, you can do what you want - you can use html img tag but you can use CMSms {image} tag too .
I may sound confused -
Please relax :D - CMS made it simple ...

In general...

Store images in uploads/images...

Use images...

For styling use the CSS...
for background..
  background: url(uploads/images/image.jpg)

In content...

In edit > page mode using FCKeditor there is an insert image button, click some where in the content edit textarea then image insert button and you get a popup that has a browse button which takes you to the uploads/images folder, click on an image and it comes back with a path to it, if you need to make it smaller change the height or the width and it will auto calculate the other dimension when done hit OK and you will see image in content...
