In the Info pages I have pictures I want to add to About, what is URL I am not a programmer. In the product I am able to insert images for each product, it is strict forward but in About page I can't do it.

Try to use the picture embedding button using the text editor toolbar in info page settings. Post your questions here, should any arise.

hi rat

When I got to the Insert/Edit image it prompts me for URL, the image is on my computer not stored somewhere-else like a ftp server or photobucket.com.
info Pages > Edit page > About

Also when I use the "paste from word" feature in About , the image in my word document will no appear so it is the URL method but what URL my picture is on my local computer.

Hi rat

just find out inside Post a reply there is a upload picture and it will give me a URL

http://forum.webasyst.net/uploads/46128_13112011.jpg , but once I log out I don't know where it is stored so I can use the url again.

Hi rat

the uploaded image via Quick post is not stored in Design > Image Uploader neither in Misc nor Product images.

First make sure that an image file has a URL. To do so, upload it somewhere. You can use section Design → Image Uploader for this purpose. Once uploaded, an image file has its own URL accessible via the Permalink property.

Hi rat
Got it, now I have the image between two paragraphs which is not what I want, how can I have the second paragraph appears next to the image?

I am using Word 2010, word actually allows me to wrap text around picture, however when I copy and paste the word docx to About us the image is not there? will not copy across, in About us there is a " paste from word" button in toolbar . How do I fix that?

Never use MS Word to format text in web pages. Use CSS instead. In your case the float: left; property should do the job when applied to the image element.

Hi rat,
float : left ? not sure what you mean, sorry I am no web programmer, is there a button on toolbar allows me to do that?

Hi rat,

float : left , do you mean alignmnet > left, it looks like what I want, but need some space, text too close to the picture.

I mean exactly what I have written. I suggest that you read a CSS manual for beginners and practice a little to understandhow it works. The espace next to the image can be added using the margin property.
