Pics - If you want a user photo album, say the word. They are easy to create, and you can upload all the pics you want.

Links - go to the link area, and submit your information. If you want to create a new category, it should be self explanatory.

Stories - use the contribute link up at the top of the page. You'll pick one of the topics down the side. If you think there should be a topic that isn't there, then email and I'll get it up for you. Enter your story as you would like it to appear. To insert pics, you'll need to upload them to either to user photo album, or your FTP account if you have one.

To actually insert the pics in your story, there are two options.

1. When in the contribute dialog, you are given the option to upload up to 5 pics. Please make sure they fit into your story well before uploading them.

2. make sure you are formatting it as HTML instead of plain text, then use the following tag:

<img src="http://www.thelocationofthepic.com/pic1.jpg">

if you need to put blank lines around your pics, between paragraphs, etc use <br>

Also you can submit files to the download area. Should be self explanatory.

Also fyi on images....

Avatars are 1mb and story pics are 2mb.

1000 x 1000 pixels...

Another FYI

You can choose which blocks of info on the pages you want to see. For example, some of you obviously won't care about the Richmond Weather, so you may want to cut that space off.

Choose user functions down the left side then My Account - and then the Content tab - and turn on and off which blocks of info you want / dont want to see.
