With page editor, you may build your own private library of images for use on your website. You can obtain images from two sources for your private library: The PageEditor's public free image library, and images you upload yourself.
Using your private image library
To access your private image library, simply
click on the icon. A dialog box comes up, showing a list
of images you have available in your private image library. If you have
never used PageEditor before, this list will be empty. There are four
buttons on this page. Below is a list of the names of these buttons, and
the tasks they are intended for:
Free Images: Clicking this button opens PageEditor's public image library. From this window, you may search through the public library and add images to your private library. For more details, see Accessing the public image library below.
Refresh: newly added images will not appear in this list until you click this button. This task only needs to be performed once, until you add new images again.
Upload…: Clicking this button allows you to browse your hard drive and upload an image from your computer.
Preview: entering in the URL for an online image and clicking "Preview" lets you see the image you have typed the address to, in order to verify you have entered the URL correctly.
Delete: Selecting a file name from the drop-down menu and clicking this button will delete that image from your private image library.
Cancel: clicking this button cancels this dialog box, making no changes.
Ok: After you have selected an image in your private library, clicking "Ok" will insert the image into your website, at whatever location the cursor is currently located.
Accessing the public image library
You can access the public image library
by clicking on the icon and selecting "Free Images"
in the window that comes up. The functions available in this window are
described below:
Categories: this drop-down menu allows you to select what category of images you would like to browse through.
Search: enter in a keyword and press the [enter] key in order to perform a keyword search for the kind of picture you'd like to find.
"Next" and "Previous links: These links let you browse between pages of images.
To get a larger view of an image, click on it. After viewing the larger image, if you wish to add it to your private library, click on "ok". If you want to go back to the list of images, click "cancel". Before adding an image to your private library, you may enter in your own name for the image, in the box labeled "copy to my images as".
