How do I add images to a review?
After you have saved your review and you are in the preview window click the Add image link in the user panel in the right hand column.
To get to the preview window from elsewhere click Manage my reviews, select the review you want to add an image to. Then click the Add image link.
You can add up to five images to a review.
How do I get the image of my choice to appear in the review listings?
The thumb-sized image that appears in the list of reviews is the first image you upload. You can manipulate the order of your images by going to Manage images and using the Display order up and down buttons.
An image I want to add will not upload?
The image file you select for uploading must be in .jpg, .png or .gif format and must less than 1Mb file size. If it does not meet this specification your image upload will fail.
How do I get my review to appear as Latest review on the Interface home page?
The review that gets shown as the Latest review on Interface home page is the last review that been added and published. It will remain there until someone else adds and publishes a review.
The home page is refreshed every fifteen minutes - this is to speed how quickly it displays. After publishing your review it will therefore take up to fifteen minutes to appear on the home page.
I have uploaded an image but the large version of it that appears after clicking the thumbnail is much smaller than other images on the site.
When you upload images they are automatically processed to the sizes required by the website. It will not however attempt to increase the size of your original to meet the 480pxl size for the large image - to do so would degrade the quality of the image. Wherever possible use images larger than 480pxls
I want to promote my exhibition. Should I post it in Reviews unedited?
No. Reviews unedited is for critical writing on recent or current contemporary art exhibitions, performances, publications or public art works.
Use What's on to promote your own work or a project you are involved with.
Can I edit my review once it has been published?
Yes. From www.a-n.co.uk/interface go to My Reviews and click on the relevant review. You can edit, publish/unpublish, delete , or add an image to your review.
I have updated my online profile but its hasn't gone live.
1. You can have a generic profile that will be the default for all articles you post on the site. This is the profile in Join in > My account > My online profile
2. When you post an article you have the opportunity to use a profile that can be tailored specifically for that one article. This setting can be found in the add and edit functions for the reviews. This article-specific will only be shown alongside that particular article.
3. The above add or edit tool contains an option which allows you to copy the article-specific profile to your default profile, ie the one in Join in > My account > My online profile. This will then be shown alongside all articles you have made except for those that you have added an article-specific profile.
