Adding Images<br />

I’ve uploaded a smaller version in this example to<br />

demonstrate. This image is much smaller than the place<br />

holder.<br />

With the larger image the image quality looks very good<br />

when we make it smaller.<br />

After I resize the image we can see that the image quality<br />

has suffered.<br />

Using the drawing program we can use the placeholder<br />

to help us resize the image. When resizing the image<br />

it’s important to use the corner handles. The corner<br />

handles will help resize the image proportionally. This<br />

means you won’t accidentally make the image too fat or<br />

too thin.<br />

Resize the image and place it next to the place holder.<br />

When its next to the place holder move the image up<br />

or down until a red smart guide appears that helps you<br />

align the top edge of the image with the top edge of the<br />

placeholder. The smart guide helps snap the image to<br />

match the top of the placeholder.<br />
