Articles always look better with images, getting them formatted on the page is as important as selecting a good image.

Important formatting options to pay attention to include the image size, how text wraps around the image, the margin around the image & how the image is justified.

Resizing and compressing your image in an image editor first  will always produce the best results, but you can resize your images after they are uploaded as well.

To begin add an image to an article, make sure the cursor is where you want the image to appear - before, after or anywhere within your text.

Click the 'Insert/Edit Image' button.
