HOW TO CREATE A WIKI PAGE

 * 1) #|Click the + by Pages and Files at the top left column.
 * 2) **Name your page with your last name-book.** Add tags such as book, phs, your last name. This will help you later if you choose to search for the page.
 * 3) Go to the webpage where you found the book cover design. Right click on the image you want to embed on the wiki page. Choose Save Image As and click on your directory **(lastname and first name initials book**). Choose your #|Pictures folder in the directory. Put into the wiki research folder in the Pictures folder. Save the image into that folder. Make sure it is a jpg file.

Click Edit at the top right of the page and #|start typing to post and #|answer the questions. Click the icon called File to embed your images. Click #|Upload Files. Choose the image file you saved before in your pictures folder. Wait for it to fully load (you'll see the image). Click on the image...it will be yellow to show you've selected it. It will upload onto the page where you chose to insert it. You can center it or make it larger or smaller from here also.
 * 5) Make sure you save your page after each one.
 * 6) Once all 3 images are posted and explained you should come back to this page and link your name to your finished page.
 * 7) Click edit and highlight your name. Then click the link tool. Choose link and choose the new wiki page you created with your last name. Now your name here should be linked to the new page you created.
