- Please contact support to assist in both these aspects, should the module not be available or the Catalogue menu item is not available to the correct group of users as target audience.

The Signify Image Uploader is an administrative screen which can be used to upload image files to the system which can later be used in other parts of the system - e.g. pathways and catalogues. For every image uploaded 2 images are stored: a small thumbnail image as well as a full-size image of the image. The following steps shows how an image can be uploaded to the system and how the image and thumbnail URL can be obtained to include in other parts of the system. Only a system administrator will be able to upload images to the system.

To access the Image Uploader, do the following:

Navigate to: *System Administration | Tools | Configuration | Framework | Image Uploader*

- Specify a name/title for the image in the Image Description text box
- Optionally specify a specific width for the image, if it should be re-sized from the original image size - the aspect ratio of the image will be kept
- Optionally specify a specific width for the thumbnail image to be created from the image (a smaller image to be used as icon in the system), if you do not wish to use the standard size for the thumbnail image
- Click “Upload” to upload the image to the system.

If the image is not available, use the search function to find the image.

Use the button with the arrows pointing to each other or the button with the arrows pointing away from each other to select the thumbnail or the full-size image. Most modern browsers will allow the user to right click on the link and then copy the address of the link such as below.

These URL addresses can now be used in other parts of the system to display images, e.g. in a Pathway, the Assessment Builder module and the Catalogue module (to specify a primary catalogue image to be used on the first page of the catalogue when creating the catalogue).
