HTML: Check the box

Abstract: Copy and Paste the 'source code' for the abstract from the Local IMC (Austin IMC). Don't worry about the body of the article because the "read more" link on indymedia.us will direct people to the feature on the Local IMC (Austin IMC) where the full article will live.

So, "Content" is left blank.

Then click "insert"

Now we are ready to add an image.

Save (a large version if possible, 600 pixles is good.......) the summary image used for the Local IMC (Austin IMC) to the computer's desktop.

Click: "Upload Image" and choose the correct image from your desktop.

From this window, there are only 3 things that need to be done.

1) Check the little box that says, "published"
2) "Browse" for the image you want to use.
3) Click "insert"

* Bradley's opinion: Don't add a title to the image, it looks bad.......

Now scroll down to the attachments and be sure to choose "add image"

Ok, all should be good now.

You should be taken to the "media folder" page and you should see the image you just added listed as the first "icon"

We are now ready to click, "start"

and then "generate all new"

wait a few minutes for the feature to show up.
