SiteMaker: The Basics 4. Inserting Images

Note:  If you have purchased your SiteMaker package after the 4th June 2013 you will be using our new version of SiteMaker.

The new version creates a website in HTML5 rather than flash, making our SiteMaker website viewable on many popular phones and tablet devices.

Because of this some of the Support Centre articles may not apply to your SiteMaker configuration. To make it easier we have appended all relevant articles with HTML5 to make it easier for you to find your desired guide.

Adding images to your SiteMaker website follows the same process as adding text. First off start by selecting Insert from your toolbar. Again, you will notice that the object menu opens on the left side of your screen.

You can choose an image that you have uploaded yourself by selecting My Files or View all my Files, all you can select from a list of default images using the Library option. Click on the image you wish to use and click the Use this button.

Your chosen image will be inserted onto your website. You can reposition the image simply by dragging it into place. Drag the edges of the image to resize.
