Overview

Images make your eCompendium look great. You can add images to Sections, Items and Banners. Every image must be uploaded to the Media Library first – you then choose it from the library wherever you want to use it.

The eCompendium automatically crops and centres your image if it needs to be shown as a square or landscape tile.

If an image is too large, resize or compress it before uploading. Free online tools can reduce file size without a noticeable drop in quality. Remember, the images will be seen on a smaller smart phone rather than a big computer monitor!
