images, templates, categories and more advanced formatting techniques

Using images

Using images is fairly easy. First, you must upload an image, which you can do from the "toolbox" on the left (click on "Upload file"). Before you upload an image, make sure that either: you own the image; that it is in the public domain; or that the copyright holder has agreed to license it under the GFDL. Please follow the copyright notice instructions on the upload page.
