You can either click on the “Upload Image” button or right-click ➡ “Upload Image”.

Create Link

After uploading an image, the system will be hosting the image.


You can then use this image when needed if you have a link to it.


To create a link to an image, all you have to do is right-click on the image and select “Create Link” from the options.

The next step is to choose a function. All it means is whether you want to adjust the image or not.


create-link-function


If you would like to leave the image as it is, choose the “Original Image” option.


Otherwise, select one from the other four:

  • Fit To Size

  • Resize

  • Crop

  • Thumbnail


All four will have the same parameters:

  • Width

  • Height

  • Anchor


The width and the height can be set to auto which will preserve the width-height ratio of the image.


The anchor will determine the positioning of the picture.


After you finish setting up the function parameters, click on the “Create” button to create a link to the image.

You can then copy and paste the link.


For example, copying the link and pasting it on a new tab on the browser will open the image.
