How to link images from the file upload
Once you have uploaded an image using the file upload system.

click on the file in question copy the URL in memory e.g CTRL + C or apple +C

Then create a new post and if the file is an image you have three options.

IMG - Use this mostly to add an image to the blog

IMGR - - Use with text right

IMGL - Use with text left

example here

Code :
img tag here // image location // close image tag

Hi all,

In order for you to be able to create new categories you need to have administrative rights, your normal user profiles have now been changed to admin accounts giving you all a lil extra power & allowing you to create new categories

Technical Diagnostic on Image upload
Hi
out technical guy has been trouble shooting the image uploading problem, please see below for solution
From now on we recommend you change all images to GIFF format before uploading also see below.

As for AV files we have discussed this with Sean and he is aware, there was no official decision made on this format but in terms of the website this will be possible.

http://mywebland.com/forums/showtopic.php?t=724
This link above records the problems that the client NSNF has been having.

This problem occurs as there are discrepancies in the JPEG file format.

These problems are well documented in forums and technical websites such as Microsoft
http://www.microsoft.com/protect/computer/updates/bulletins/200409_jpeg_tool.mspx

JPEG files are subject to VIRUS infection!!!!!!!!!

http://www.sophos.com/pressoffice/news/articles/2002/06/va_perrun.html

In summary there are multiple JPEG formats. But all appear in windows XP/2000 as .jpg

* .jpg
* .jpeg
* .pjpeg
* .pjpg

Within these formats there are three render modes:
1. Progressive
2. Baseline standard
3. Baseline "Optimized"

So in short unless the person uploading the image is familiar with JPEG file formats and render modes this form of image upload is unreliable on any web platform.

The UNIVERSAL file format for the web is .GIF, gif is a standard developed for interchange within web platforms, this format was developed to make web graphics load quicker and be stable on any server type.

WHAT YOU NEED TO KNOW

Stop uploading unreliable JPEG files and start uploading .GIF files. You will not have any more problems.

How to change a file from JPEG to GIF?
This free image tool kit from infranview

http://www.irfanview.com/
Allows you to change images from JPEG or any format to GIF.

I propose we start with creevalea Iron works and meet in Manorhamilton at 10 am or at the works at 11am on Monday.

(unfortunatly I have 9am architects appoint in Sligo. and cannot change.)

If raining we can also go onto ballinamore county library and meet the head librarian Sean O'Sullivan
LOCAL STUDIES DEPARTMENT WWWLEITRIMLIBRARY.IE/LOCALSTUDIES.
local collections

If not this maybe a walk up to kings mountain- Will speak to Sam about this.

Best Regards
Sean

Site visits
I propose Creevelea Iron Works as an interesting location for a group visit. I have been up there wandering around a little and would love to hear about other peoples impressions of the space/ any extra historical information you might know.

(Anna- you mentioned that you have already done some research into Creevelea. it would be great if you could post some of that up so we could have a read before the visit?Thanks!)

See you all again soon,
Elaine.

Image Uploading


Hi All !

Eoin has devoped a script which allows for the uploading of images to the Blog homepage ..

Just follow these steps,

1. From the home page, click on ADMIN, then click on the TOOLS tab.
2. Here you click BROWSE to locate your image and once located, click UPLOAD
3. Now your file will be featured on the file name list
4. Click on the file
5. Now Highlight the URL address bar @ the top of the web page and copy it (CTRL + ALT +C)
6.Like normal go to NEW POST where you would normally upload text.
7. Under BBcode you will see a series of tabs eg( Quote, Code, ol=a, li..) etc
8. Click the IMG tab once and in the message area you should see [img]
9. Now after [img] right click and paste the address you copied in step 5.
The message should for example read something like this:

[img]http://newsitesnewfields.com/blogs/blog/files/fulllogo.gif

10. now finally you must close this by clicking Img* a second time and your link should read similar to below:

[img]http://newsitesnewfields.com/blogs/blog/files/fulllogo.gif [/img]

11. now this enables you to upload text and images in the same post!

GOOD LUCK!
if any one has any questions or wants to arrange a meeting to do a demo of this in person feel free to call the office @ 071 98 55750
