Image Formatting:General Guides

Images are a critical part of FiveFootWay articles. They add to the richness of the article and a good picture can tell a story by itself. FFW ver1.3 introduces thumbnails to accompany your posts and also the creation of an automated slideshow at the front page. This new version also introduces the capability for captioning your images.

For this version of the website to function as desired, it is critical that images are formatted properly. Failure to do so might cause images to not appear, the layout of the website to be distorted or cause the slideshow on the front page to show a blank screen which isn’t a good way to start a website.

In this section, you will find the image formatting standards used in the website and also help on how to upload the various images into the system.

We will start it off by introducing some general guides.
