What I would like to do is in the middle of an entry put in the odd photo to show what I am talking about.

How easy is it to do this?

I am a complete novice when it comes to HTML or anything like that so if it is really easy to do or you can provide me with step by step instructions then that would be great!

I have managed to upload a couple of images on to the uploads part of the b2evolution blog backend but when I try and put them in my comments it just puts in a URL link to the image instead of displaying it. :(

Thanks in advance. :)

Oh I get it now!!! I couldn't work out what to do in the Files area and tried dragging the image in to my blog which simply put in a URL link to the image which I didnt want!

Many thanks for your help!

Quick question:

I have now successfully inserted a couple of images in to my blog. They are centred in the middle. How can I align them to the left?

Thanks.

You'll have to edit past posts, and keep the following in mind for future posts. Inserting the code from the file manager gives you the image centered with a caption under it. You probably see, when you edit or after inserting, something like this:

<div class="image_block"><img src="http://yourdomain.com/media/blogs/blog_name/filename.jpg" alt="alt text" title="title text" width="943" height="11" /></div>

You want that image, but not centered like that. You want it aligned to the right with the text flowing around it on the left. Cool. Change it to this:

<img src="http://yourdomain.com/media/blogs/blog_name/filename.jpg" alt="alt text" title="title text" width="943" height="11" class="rightmargin" />


Notice that I removed the div and /div, and added a "class" to the img tag? You can also use leftmargin as the class, but I can't say that every skin will be hip to knowing what "rightmargin" and "leftmargin" mean. b2evolution does, but no one knows what every skin is capable (and not capable) of.

Many thanks for that! I have just done as you have said and it has worked a treat!

Thanks for such a quick reply and fix!!!

Very welcome! I like when text flows around an image is why I like to know the answer to this one. I especially like, but don't have a link to the code anymore, where code flows along the edge of an image. Man that was cool!

Have fun!!!
