·  Go to the top of the screen and select “Insert” and “Picture” then select “Clipart”.

Step 4: Go to the top bar and select “Edit” and click on “Select All”.

Step 5: Click on “Edit” and then “Copy”.

Step 6: Click on the “Start” button.

Step 7: Click on “All Programs”.

Step 14: Now you are ready to upload the clipart into the OnCourse website builder.

Step 15: Click on the “My Website”.

Step 16: Click on the “Edit Section” button where you want to add the clipart.

Step 17: Click on the “Image Manager” button.  Note- It is the one with what looks like a mountain and a sun.

Step 18: Click on “Upload Image”.

Step 19: Click on “Browse”. You will have to find the file with your picture on your computer, CD, disk, or memory card.         

Note: Pictures must be under 200KB in size.  You will have to use a photo editor to resize the photo.
