After a few moments, clicking on the camera will show this screen. It shows thumbnails of all
 +
of the images available to be added to the lesson. In this case, these are the screen shots I used in
 +
preparing this page.
 +
 +
The images are those found in the Journal plus any images in /home/olpc/Documents. In recent builds of Sugar,
 +
this folder is visible in the Journal and acts like a mounted usb drive. This means that images obtained from
 +
the internet, a digital camera or a mobile phone can be copied to a usb drive. When this drive is mounted, it will appear at the bottom of the Journal screen along with an icon for the /home/olpc/Downloads folder. By selecting the usb drive (or SD card) containing the images, the relevant ones can be dragged to the folder. Alternatively, the images can be dragged to the Journal. In either case, a thumbnail will appear on this screen.

In this case, the middle image in the top row was selected (click on the thumbnail). This screen allows the teacher to specify the size and location of the image. The width of 600 represents one-half of the screen. The height of 450 gives a 4:3 aspect ratio.
 +
 +
The next entry specifies the screen on which the image will appear. In single-screen lessons this is, of course, 1.
 +
In multi-screen lessons, the teacher might want a different image on each screen.
 +
 +
An entry of 1L specifies that the image should be at the top left of the screen. An entry of 1R specifies the right side. An entry of 1 specifies the image should be centered. When the image is on the left, text will appear to its right. If right is specified, text will appear to the left. When an image is centered, text will begin
 +
below the image.
 +
 +
The teacher clicks on the OK entry to commit the change.
 +
 +
[[Image:image_3.png]]
 +
 +
This shows the image in the lesson. Since 1L was entered, the image is on the left with text to the right.
 +
Note: images currently can only be located at the top of a screen and only one image can be on each screen.
