Summary: Using the Image Manager to upload and insert images into your Tablets

NOTE: For security reasons, Facebook requires that any image that is uploaded to your albums via a third-party application be approved by you before you can use it. Although you can upload images using the Slates Image Manager, it is rather clumsy because you have to go to another page that will ask you to allow slates extended access to your Facebook account in order to upload your images.  Just follow along...

To upload or insert an image into a tablet, click the image.gif icon on the editor toolbar to launch the Image Manager.

The Image Manager screen is in two sections, the top for uploading new images, the bottom for selecting images that exist in your Photo albums on Facebook.

Uploading: to upload images to your Facebook Albums, first select the album you wish to upload into, then browse for as many as 10 files at a time and click "Upload Files". See note above about approving photos that you upload.

Inserting: to insert an image in your Tablet, first place the cursor in the table where you'd like the image to go. Click on the Image Manager icon image.gif in the toolbar. Navigate to the photo you wish to insert by selecting the album and photo. You will be given an opportunity to change image alignment, vertical and horizontal spacing, borders, etc. Click OK to insert the image.
