New Text Editor Added-Updated

Hi Everyone,

 

We have changed the text editor in the forums to make it easier to upload images, webpages, and embed videos within your posts. Also color and fonts!  Hope you make use of these.

 

Some quick pointers for uploading images.  We are limited to 100kb for images so please use an editor like photoshop to edit or pull images from other sites using the image tool.

1. To embed an image click the yellow mountain icon it looks like this

2. you then need to click on the upload to server tab

 

 

 

3. Next upload the image by finding it on your computer and clicking send to server.

 

 

4, Your Image now appears

5. You can resize the image by clicking on it and using the cursor like in Photoshop.

 

Adding HTML - To link a word or sentence to another URL just highlight the text you want to make a hotlink and click the world button . Otherwise click on this button to add a plain old HTML link and make it active.

 

Embedding videos - To embed a video, click on this button it says Insert HTML, paste the video code and click ok.  You wont be able to see the video immediately, but by clicking the source button you can see the code and move the video around in your topic such that you can write comments etc and make it look nice for everyone.  

 

Hope this helps make posting easier for all of you

The Scientist Solutions Staff.
