  • After that, it should be pretty straight forward. Copy the embed/link text from the YouTube video and paste it into the 'videolink' field. Add a title and some description, click Submit, and you're done.
How do I add a photo to the Gallery?
  • Request a login (look on the right side of the home page).
  • Login
  • On the right side, some new links will show up. Click on 'Create content'
  • Now you can add almost anything to the website. You want to add a 'Photo'.
  • After that, it should be pretty straight forward; photos are
    automatically resized. You add them one at a time; slows you down a
    little, but, it gives you time to think of a caption and to decide
    whether you really want to post that photo that is too dark and
    out-of-focus.
