Click here to access the blog draft which currently consists of only the text of the oringinal article. I need someone with more technical expertise than I have to import the two photos and the graphic. Thanks. | |

Imported the graphic and the two photos.
John, the upload procedure is fairly simple, once you get used to it:
I'll write this up in a blog post format under the Authors section of the Forum when I get the chance. | |

Is there a way to reduce the size of the two photos and wrap text around them? | |

Is there a way to insert the photo captions into a box and append it to the photo so that the photo and captions are alsways coupled? | |

If you follow Step 7 above, then when someone hovers their cursor over the image or graphic then that text input in Step 7 will appear. Otherwise you have to manually caption each image/graphic. Which, if you're wrapping text, makes it a PITA to properly caption anything. | |

When you imported the two photos and the graphic what did you do with the captions? Right now, they appear to be part of the article text. Am i missing something? | |

John, I just copy/pasted them into a blank line below their associated graphic and made them italic (and I pasted them into the appropriate line when entering the graphic, like I detailed in the instructions above; that way when the cursor hovers over them, the caption text then appears). That's the standard SkS style. The way to work around that is to use a new screen-capture of the image/graphic from the original article with the captions composited in them. You would still have to upload them to SkS, but the captions would then be there for you. The drawback is that the captions wouldn't be legible if you thumbnail the images. | |

Now I understand waht you're talking about. I didn't relaize that a caption box would appear when hovering the cursor over the photo. The caption in the box is not, however, in italics. In this case, we have both the pop-up cation box and the caption in itlaics underneath the graphjic. Is the standard SkS style to have both? Alos, for the thrid graphic, the pop-up caption includes an option to enlarge the image. How did you code that feature into the box? | |
