 = HOW TO DO NEAT THINGS ON YOUR PAGE =    The top bar, called "Editor," allows you to change fonts, colors, and place things in bold, italics, or underline it. You can use a numbered list, a bulleted list, or insert a horizontal line. You can embed links, pictures, videos, or links. Below I will show how to do those things.

The story of //Romeo and Juliet// surrounds you on a daily basis, probably without you realizing it. References to Shakespeare's star-crossed lovers resound throughout the media and can be found in movies, stories, even in media. Check out the following link: [|Romeo and Juliet Inspirations]  ===In order to add a link... follow the directions. It will be helpful if you have the page you want to link to open as a different window while doing this. === 
 * 1) Type the title of the page you want to link to. (For example, I had to type the words //Romeo and Juliet Inspirations// FIRST.) Highlight that title.
 * 2) Click the icon in the Editor bar at the top that looks like a globe with a link of a chain in front of it. This will bring up a box.
 * 3) The bottom option in the box says "External Link." Click it so it is active.
 * 4) Go to the page you want to link to, highlight the URL, and copy it into the box that says external link. (If your URL has the prefix http:// already there, you have to delete it because wikispaces adds it for you.
 * 5) Click CANCEL.
 * 6) In order to check if your link saved, you must save this page and check it there.


===**In order to add an image... follow the directions. It will be helpful if you have the page you want to link to open as a different window while doing this.** ===


 * 1) Find an image using [|Flickr Creative Commons].
 * 2) Double-click the image to choose the optimal size, then right click, SAVE AS, and save it to your teacher share folder. Name it something you will remember.
 * 3) Click the "tree" icon at the top. Browse to your teacher share, choose your photo, click "upload." This may take a minute. When it does, you may align it on the page or add a caption.
 * 4) **WAIT, you're not done yet!**
 * 5) Go back to the photo and right click again. Copy the URL address and take note of the photographer.
 * 6) On your wikipage, paste the URL and give credit to the photographer.
 * 7) Save your page!

In order to add a slideshow... follow the directions above to save pictures.
For ANIMOTO, which is easier, but does not contain captions, you should save from 10-15 photos. It will help you IMMENSELY if you save them all in one folder as you can upload them all at once. Also remember to save the attributions to your photos. Think of it this way: for every photo/image you find, you must save it twice -- once as a photo to your folder, and once as a URL/attribution. For this, I made a word document and then copied and pasted the information to my wikipage when I was finished. For ROCKYOU, which is a little more complicated but also a little bit more cool because they have good music and you can add captions, you can use any number of photos. Again, save them first!   > >
