INSTRUCTIONS

This is where you can add, amend or delete the stories that appear on the Madhatters site in the YOUR NEWS section. It's easy to do but there are just a few simple rules to follow. 

1. Only 1 Image is allowed per story. This can either be in JPEG (.jpg) format or GIF (.gif) format. Make sure the image is on your hard disk and select it by clicking on the Image Browse button. Images should not really be any bigger than 300 pixels width (recommended is 200pixels) and should have a resolution of 72dpi. If in doubt see the image size options in your image editing program. Adobe Photoshop, Fireworks or PaintShopPro are recommeded.

2. In the Story field you will have to specify the formatting of the story yourself. This is easy to do and just requires putting some basic HTML tags round your paragraphs. If in doubt on how to do this have a look at one of the other stories that uses simple formatting. As a guideline you can do some simple formating, e.g:

<P>Madhatters is the <B>best</B> Web site in the <I>world</I>, it really is honestly</P>

would come out as follows:

Madhatters is the best Web site in the world, it really is honestly

3. Remember to tick  the INCLUDE ARTICLE check box to put the story on the site. 

4.The  PRECIS field cannot be bigger than 255 Characters

5. Beacuse we are trialing the system I'd be grateful if you tell me immediately have any difficulties with the system, cheers. E-mail me at: dave@madhatters.org.uk or phone on 07932 004696 and I will get back to you asap.
