Can I add images to my Blackboard web pages?
From BbWiki
There are two main ways to display an image file directly in Blackboard.
METHOD 1: Display an embedded image in any content item
To display an image directly in any content item,
1) select +Item (add item) in the desired control panel area.
2) In section 1 'Content Information', give the item a title, and enter text (optional).
3) In section 2 'Content', click the 'Choose File' button to 'Attach the local file' such as a jpeg or gif from your computer.
4) In the 'Special Action' menu, choose 'Display media file within the page'. Click Submit.
5) A set of options for 'Embedded Media Information' will appear. Select the desired alignment, size and border for your image. Click Submit.
METHOD 2: Display an embedded image as part of HTML (advanced)
If you are formatting your text using HTML, you can add in-line images such as jpegs or gifs to Blackboard content pages by including a reference to the file in your HTML text box input.
1) Go to the control panel for the content area or folder where you want the image to display
2) Click Add +Item
3) enter the following code into the text box, where mypicture.jpg is the name of your the image file on your computer. Be sure to enclose the filename in quotes.
<img src="mypicture.jpg">
You may also include plain text or HTML code above and below the image.
4) Select the HTML radio button underneath the text box. Press Submit at the bottom of the page.
5) The next screen will give a message "missing image detected." Click the Browse ... button to find and select the image file on your computer. Press submit.
