Website Building and Formatting Help
To add new building design:
- Select "@ New Building Template" from your list of pages under "Pages"
- Toward the bottom of the page side panel select "Copy"
- Rename your Page "@ ________"
- Fill out the building name and location.
- Use the first image box as the main thumbnail photo.
- Feel free to add text boxes, aligned to either side of following images.
Creating your thumbnail
- Make sure to build your new thumbnail listing on a "Color Block" to allow easier reordering of buildings.
- I prefer to use 4 Spacers, 1 Thumbnail, and 1 Text Box on each Color Block.
- Place one spacer in between the image and the text,
and one spacer on the outside of either.
The last spacer should go above the text box, within the color block.
Drag the boundary lines while holding the Shift-Key to your desired dimensions.
- Place one spacer in between the image and the text,
- Once finished, click the outlining color block and drag the circle under "Transparency" all the way left to zero.
- Remember to also link your main thumbnail photo to its standard page. Achieve this by clicking on the image and selecting "link"
Utilize the following symbols at beginning of page names to organize your work:
