Background

You can easily put a snazzy background on your pages. Two important things about that, though: 1. make sure that the background is so obtrusive that it interferes with reading your pages and 2. use the same background throughout your WQ site. That helps people know where they are. Here's how you can put a background on a specific page:

• Go to the File menu and choose Properties.
• Click the Formatting tab.
• Check the Background picture checkbox.
• Click the Browse button.
• Find the picture you want on your computer and click OK.
• It will be inserted into the background.
• When you save the page, you will be asked if you want to import the picture into your web. Say yes!

Graphics

Putting pictures on your pages works almost exactly the same way, In addition, they can have a real educational advantage if you find good pictures that enhance the information you are trying to convey. Here's how:

• Make sure that you have the picture you want available on your hard drive (and that you know where to find it!). If it is on the Web, right-click on it and save it to your disk first.
• Open the page where the picture will appear.
• Put your insertion point at the spot where you want it to appear.
• Go to the Insert menu and choose Picture... From File.
• Use the buttons at the left (such as My Documents or My Computer) to find the picture on your hard drive.
• Select it and click OK. It will be inserted on your page.
• When you save the page, you will be asked if you want to import the picture into your web. Say yes!
