    Hi
    Under Add a new media, is there a difference between those three options?
    -Media file to upload
    -Thumbnail to upload
    -File name on server

    I used first and third - they seem to be doing the same thing. Hope they both are permanent.

    Thanks in advance.
    Irene

    Irene - Hardly the same. If they were, do you think we would have left them all?
    As to option #2, some people prefer to create their own thumbnails, zeroing in on a face or feature, rather than letting the system simply create one of a particular size.
    As to option #3, you can use an existing file, previously uploaded.

    1 is the usual and most commonly used option and one that allows the greatest flexibility as you upload.

    Actually, #3 used in combination with #1 lets you upload a file and have it called something else when it's stored on the server.
