 ====== Uploading images ======
-Being able to upload photos and other images is important for all curators for their own personal home pages (see [[getting an account]]), and then for improving any other pages you create or curate. In Growing the Commons, we pride ourselves in making pages look attractive with the addition of images — a practice we have taken on from [[user:Dave]] and his great Lowimpact site. =)

 The [[inserting images]] page explains how to use an image already on the web, in which case there is no need to upload anything, you can just use them from their existing URL. The rest of this page assumes that you need to upload a photo or image that is not already on the web, and that has not yet been uploaded to this wiki.

 To use the image you have uploaded, you will write something like this on the page:
-`{{nuts.jpg?200|}}`, which gives you this image:
+`{{nuts.jpg?200|these are nuts}}`, which gives you this image:
-{{nuts.jpg?200|}}
+{{nuts.jpg?200|these are nuts}}
 If you are still on the page where you were to upload the image, you won't need a namespace.
