The Webmaster's Corner - Adding Images to Content

The new MWSA website works well with a variety of media: images, audio, video, and more. It is tempting to add media to content simply because we can. 

While many members are rushing to include media content in posts, remember that there can be "too much of a good thing" — and that's especially true of multimedia content online. Images and various media files are large. Unlike YouTube or Hulu, we don't have unlimited bandwidth or a room of servers. Adding media wisely means our website will be faster and easier to use for more people.

Along with several other people, I am working on the MWSA Website Guide, which is now listed at the top of the "Navigation" menu. Only members can read this handbook; you won't even see the link until you sign in to the website. 

I've added to the section on using media and will update the instructions more as time permits. Please read this:

Adding Images and Media to Content

It is important that everyone understand how media should be added so the site can be as efficient and easy-to-use as possible.
