To change the default picture, simply launch admin console, scroll down to main content and delete what is there, then click on the picture of a house (right under the source button) and choose a picture.

You cannot upload directly from Facebook. You will have to save the picture to your computer first. In Facebook, click on the picture, then right-click then click Save Image As. You should create a folder for all of your TM related photos and files, that will make it easier to find later.

Ian,

Here is a photo from your club's Facebook pages (I just picked it as a sample for discussion):
www.facebook.com/photo.php?fbid=51356825...n.jpg&size=960%2C641

If you click on the above link, then right click on the photo that appears, then click Save Image...
Select to save the image to your desktop on your computer.

After that, open the Admin Console on your website. Like Roger says, scroll down until you see the editor box containing the default photo. Click on the default photo to select it, then you can just press the delete key on your computer. After that, you can click on the button with the house on it above the editor box. Choose the tab called Upload from the window that shows up, press the upload button, select the image file you just saved, then click Send it to the Server, then click OK.
Here are some images to guide you:


Make sure you click the Save button at the bottom of the Admin Console after you insert the new picture.

Ian,

Great job! Your website is starting to take shape. Way to be persistent! B)

You might just change out the text on your Home page with something specific to your club, and you will have a good home page. Some clubs put their mission statement there, some clubs put a brief description and/or history of their club there (e.g., club was formed in yyyy by xxxxx), some clubs put brag statements there (e.g., We were a Presidents Distinguished Club last year!!!), etc. Any thing that provides a website visitor some insights about your club and makes them want to dig deeper into your website is a good idea for your home page.

Any way, since we got the default picture issue resolved, I am going to close out this message thread.
