Adding a Picture

Picture clues can be added to words in the vocabulary database. After you have chosen the option to Edit a vocabulary database from the main menu, follow the steps below to add a picture to a word. Only one picture can be associated with each word.

To add a picture to a word:

  1. Highlight the word that you want to add a picture to and click the Edit button. Or, you can click the Add button if you will be adding a picture to a new word.

  2. Click the Picture button.


    Navigate to the location (directory/folder) where the program will find the picture file.

  3. Select the picture and click the Open button. A dialog box will appear showing the picture that you have chosen. Click the Close button to return to the Edit Record or Add Word dialog box.

    When a student is completing a puzzle on the computer or creating a new puzzle, the picture button in the top right corner of the puzzle screen will become active if a clue with a picture is highlighted. When no picture is associated with a clue, the picture button will appear dimmed.

NOTE: Pictures added to a word must be .jpg files and have no dimension greater than 400 pixels (400x400).
