Files: Photos ENLARGE

photos help Files: Photos

Adding photos is very simple, but we always recommend resizing all of the images before uploading them to IADB. See the Settings: Resizer Program section to learn more on how to properly resize the images. When ready either drag and drop all of the images into the "Multiple Photos Uploader" tool or if you choose to do so, you may upload each image individually, in which case you would be able to enter the label and description for each image right away. When you edit each image, once again you have an option to enter a new label and description, but you can also mark the image as "Featured" or "Main". There can only by one "Main" image. This image will be used in your Resume, within the Control Panel and on your website (different locations depending on your website layout). Marking the image as "Featured" will give that image higher priority, and if your website includes image slideshow or featured images presentation, these images will be used. You can also sort the photos to your liking. Simply click the "Enable Sorting" button under the section menu and drag the photos to order them as you need them.

Any non-supported link formats will be added to the system and listed in the "More" page under the "Links" section. If you need other service support added to the Videos section, please send us a request and we will do all the research necessary to see if it is possible to add this feature.
