About inserting images
You can add images from several sources, including your computer, local network, website, e-mail, Microsoft
Internet Explorer web browser, or another application, such as Microsoft Word or Excel.
Note: Images that you add to your page should be in one of the following web-ready formats: .gif, .jfif, .jpe, .jpeg, .jpg,
and .png (16). If the image you want to add is in another format, you can use an image-editing tool, such as Adobe
Fireworks, to convert the image to a web-ready format.
When you add an image to a page, it's a good idea to add descriptive text about the image so that the image is acces-
sible to users with disabilities. Your Contribute administrator can enforce the image-accessibility option so that a
dialog box prompts you for a description whenever you add an image.
Note: For more information, talk to your Contribute administrator or see "Setting page-editing and paragraph settings"
on page 220.
About PayPal buttons
PayPal buttons, created by WebAssist.com, make it easy for you to add e-commerce functionality to a Contribute
page. After you create a payment button, you can instantly accept credit card payments from your customers. PayPal
provides a secure, hosted check-out service to process and record all your transactions. If you don't have a PayPal
account, you can open one for free in a few minutes. There are no setup or monthly fees, and PayPal charges you only
when a customer payment occurs.
Note: Your Contribute administrator must enable the PayPal feature for your role before you can use it. For more infor-
mation, talk to your Contribute administrator or see "Setting page-editing and paragraph settings" on page 220.

All payment button wizards let you price items in multiple currencies, such as Canadian dollars, British pounds
sterling, euros, or Japanese yen. They also provide options that let you display your business name and logo on the
checkout page. Finally, you can specify a web address (URL) for a web page you want shown when a customers
completes a purchase, such as a "Thank you for your order" page.
You insert the PayPal button and its associated functionality in a page by completing the screens of the PayPal wizard.
Through the wizard, you select button images to insert in the page and define multiple options (such as an item
number, price, and so on) for each item you are selling. If you need help completing the screens in the PayPal wizard,
click the Help button to view additional online help.
You can insert multiple PayPal buttons in the same page. Just be sure not to insert more than one button in the same
paragraph or table cell.
