Uploading your own Images

This section covers uploading your own images for events. For information about using the default clip-art library built into localendar, refer to the section Adding Clipart to an Event

Image Library

Accessing your Image Library

There are two places on localendar where you can access your personal image library.

The first is on the Event Editor, in the "Add an image to this event" section

The second is on the Colors Editor (select Options on the left menu, then choose the Colors tab)

Browsing your Existing Images

The "My Clipart Library" window will display all the images you have currently uploaded, along with how much space they consume (and how much space you have remaining for new uploads)

Uploading a New Image

From the "My Clipart Library" window, you can Browse for an image stored locally on your computer and click Upload to store it on localendar

If you upload an image with the same name as an existing image in the library, the old image will be replaced with the new one.

Removing an Image

You can remove images from the library by selecting the checkbox next to the image(s) and clicking the "Delete Checked Files" button

Using your Images

There are two places you can use your uploaded images: On Events, and on your calendar's background
