You can easily **use images in the wiki**.

== Uploaded images ==

First, image files need to be uploaded in the wiki. For that purpose, you will use the
[[Help:UpLoadPlugin|UpLoad]] plugin.

=== Toolbar ===

Once the image is uploaded, the easiest way to insert it is to use the toolbar.

Click on the {{/themes/default/images/ed_image.png}} icon and you will be shown a list
of available images.

Select an image and click //Insert//. The image will be inserted without options or alternative text.

=== Syntax ===

You give access to the uploaded image with the following syntax.

{{{
{{myimage.png}}
}}}
or
{{{
[[Upload:myimage.png]]
}}}
will inline the image.

{{{
{{myimage.png|this is the alt text for my image}}
}}}
inlines the image with an alternative text.

{{{
[[some link|{{myimage.png}}]]
}}}
if you click on the image, will goto "some link"

{{{
[[some link|{{myimage.png|alt text}}]]
}}}
same with alternative

{{{
[[http://example.com/|{{myimage.png}}]]
}}}
same as above: picture links to url

{{{
[[http://example.com/|{{myimage.png|alt text}}]]
}}}
same with alternative

{{{
Upload:myimage.png
}}}
shows a plain link

{{{
[[Upload:myimage.png | my image]]
}}}
shows the image under a link named "my image".

For Mediawiki compatibility, the keyword {{{Upload:}}} can be replaced by {{{File:}}} or {{{Image:}}}.

=== Options ===

Using the {{{Upload:}}} syntax, options are allowed to change the appearance:
{{{
[[Upload:myimage.png size=40x25 align=center]]
}}}

Separate options by spaces. The allowed options are the following:
* size: ''width "x" height'' or ''num + "%"''
* align: ''string''
* border: ''number''
* hspace: ''number''
* vspace: ''number''

== URL images ==

You can also use "external" images by providing a URL.

In that case, you simply put the URL between double brackets or double curly brackets:
{{{
[[http://phpwiki.svn.sourceforge.net/viewvc/phpwiki/trunk/themes/default/images/poweredby_phpwiki_51x31.png]]
}}}
or
{{{
{{http://phpwiki.svn.sourceforge.net/viewvc/phpwiki/trunk/themes/default/images/poweredby_phpwiki_51x31.png}}
}}}
will give:

[[http://phpwiki.svn.sourceforge.net/viewvc/phpwiki/trunk/themes/default/images/poweredby_phpwiki_51x31.png]]
