Additional info
NOTES:
Images are good window dressing, but can also be an assist in communicating complex procedures or concepts.  Images are of great help in explaining 'how to do' manual procedures and can streamline employee training & tutorials.
Younicycle can store almost any type of image.  Jpgs, Pngs and gifs can also be included with a Template for pdf's, Applications & Sites.  There are 3 basic methods for importing images:
1) Upload an image from your desktop.2) Upload batch (an archive) of images from your desktop.3) Reference the url of an image that is accessible, such as an image on the web.
In addition, you may upload images from a digital device, such as a digital camera.
There are also several ways to View an image from within Younicycle.
From your Menu, select New --> Image.Click Browse to retrieve an image from your desktop.  This will open a window to your Desktop files.  After you locate the image, select Open.Give it a description.  This WILL be important, as you can search for images within your account based on name or Description.
images
Make sure to give all images a description.  Images are searchable.
- Alternatively, you can also use the URL of an image and reference its URL.- You can give it a different name than what is within your system.- You can include an additional alternate High res image.  This is critical for print.- You can make it available for Chat.- You can upload an entire archive (zip, tar) of images, selectively or as a group.- It can be 'private' or if checked, Public.  This is the normal choice.
A common misconception is that Download speed = Upload speed. Though this may be true, usually there is a big difference.
Download speed may be a burst of 3 megs per second, usually for less than 1 second.  Then, a large file will begin to download at 400 kbs.
An UPLOAD may begin - and stay - at as little as 30 kbs.  This is not a function of the HR Collaborative Suite.  It is a function of your ISP and how they allocate bandwidth.
If you purchase Younicycle for your local server, the difference between upload and download speed may be identical - and - much quicker than via the web.
