The heigth and width for different devices makes mobi pages look differently... so my question is the MITE preview pane supposed to be exactly the same size for every device in this application?

1. Use your MITE login to log in to the community. Click on the Login button at the top right of the screen.
 

Once you have clicked into a category, look for the "new topic" text link at the very top of the page:

To learn more about how to get the most from your time here, start with the User Guide.

1. Breadcrumbs at the top of the page (light grey area)


2. Breadcrumbs at the bottom of the category or message (dark grey area)


3. Categories list on the left side of the page.
   

 
When you are in the Search feature, the breadcrumbs at top and bottom go away, but the  Categories menu on the left side of the page remains.

Note: The quasi-HTML tags in square brackets mentioned in that popup apply only to the HTML Editor and not to the default WYSIWYG Editor.  See the topic, Choose Your Editor: WYSIWYG vs HTML Editor for more details on your editor choices.  

Some examples of what you can do to add formatting, images and the like:

B BOLD The text you want bold
I ITALICS The text you want italicized
U UNDERLINE The text you want underlined
L= URL Describe a link 
S= SECURE URL Describe a secure URLl
F= FTP URL Describe an FTP URL
E= EMAIL Label an email address

IMG IMAGE (uses pop-up scripted prompt for URL to image, which must be hosted elsewhere.)

HR HORIZONTAL RULE

H HIGHLIGHT The text you can highlight (selecting text and clicking the highlight works too)

BULLET LI LI /BULLET BULLET LIST

How to resize your photo to be no larger than 120 x 120:

Since your photo or image must be no larger than 120 x 120, you may need to resize down from what you have. An excellent free tool for this is PIXresizer which is available directly from the author at http://bluefive.pair.com/pixresizer.htm

Using PIXresizer:

1. Click the "Load Picture" button to load your existing file.
   
2. Select the "Custom Size" radio button.
   
3. Replace the larger of the two dimensions with "120" while leaving the "Maintain Aspect Ratio" checkbox checked.
   
4. Click the "Save Picture" button.

Note on file type: If your original was anything other than JPEG or PNG, be sure to select either of those two radio buttons in "Select file format" before saving.

A note on what is appropriate for an image:

Feel free to use a humorous image, an accurate photo, a stick-figure drawing, whatever suits you! All we ask is that you avoid any image that may offend other users. That's not an easy standard to describe, but just imagine that you are attending a user conference with your peers: would you feel comfortable having the image on a t-shirt you would wear? Would others be comfortable seeing it?

Any questions? Just post a reply here!

1. Scroll down until you see the "Bookmark & Share" box on the left side of the screen.

1. Search the Forums is basic and searches the entire forum. You will find this search feature on the left column of every screen. Results are always a list of topics you can click on to view.
   
   
2. Search Category is also basic, but returns results only from the current category you are browsing. You will find this search box at the top center of each topic list once you select a category to browse. Like Search the Forums, results are always a list of topics you can click on to view.
   
   
3. Advanced Search has a lot of power and flexibility. Both Search the Forums and Search Category offer links to Advanced Search. In addition to writing complex search conditions, filtering by date and categories, you also can choose to have the results displayed in expanded form with no need to "drill down" to see what is inside each message. Just choose Display results as (o) messages instead of the default of topics. If you use the Display results as (o) messages you may find your browser's text search function (such as ctrl-f in Internet Explorer) very handy to quickly jump to the term(s) you are most interested in.
   

1. Topic (thread) Subscriptions allow you to subscribe to an individual topic. You may do this when posting (check the box near the bottom of the compose window), or you may use Topic Tools to subscribe or unsubscribe to an existing thread.
   
   


2. Category Subscriptions and the related Category Digest and Email Posting features send you everything that is posted in a particular category. You find these subscription options in your Personal Options tab after clicking on profile in the menu at the top of the screen.
   
   


3. Keyword Watches are simple keyword match triggers that may be set by accessing the dashboard link at the top of the screen.

1. Upload the image to a web server (or discover the URL if it is already hosted).
   
2. Put the URL of your image in an IMG tag. An example appears at the very bottom of this message.

Here is Google's logo displayed by inserting an IMG tag with http://www.google.com/intl/en_ALL/images/logo.gif in the IMG tag:



You can manually type the IMG tag or you can click the image insert icon in the message editor toolbar and be prompted for the image URL.

Attaching Images (Thumbnails At Bottom of Text)

You can also attach images using the "Attachments:" section at the bottom of the message editor. A thumbnail image for each image attachment will appear at the very bottom of your message. Clicking the thumbnail launches a new window with the full sized image. See below for two examples.

When using attachments, you cannot weave the thumbnails into the body of your message and you cannot label the images with descriptive text; they always appear at the very bottom of your message with "Click for full image" as the caption.

...and making a choice in the Editor Type section:

(Be sure to save your settings by clicking the Update Profile button at the bottom of the page:

So let's learn a bit about each of the editors, shall we?

The default editor is the WYSIWYG Editor (What You See Is What You Get). 

The WYSIWYG Editor is "smart" about things like pasting links and accepting formatted text intact.  It has spell checking. It also has advanced features, like letting you control whether a link opens in the same window (good for linking to other forum posts) or a new window (good for linking to examples and other information outside the forum). 

The only catch is that this editor requires Internet Explorer or Firefox to run. When running in Firefox, some of the features may vary a bit (such as the ability to control the target for links).

The WYSIWYG Editor looks like this:

If you click the full screen button on the far right of the toolbar...

...it lets you stretch the window as big as you like, giving you a much better view:

Brace yourself, below you will be looking at a screenshot of an earlier version of this very same post, with a screenshot inside that.  This reminds me of looking in a mirror at a barbershop and seeing 1000 images of myself sitting in the chair

Always remember to exit the full screen mode by clicking the icon again in the toolbar.  You'll need to do that in order to get back to the "Post Message" button!

The other editor is known as the HTML Editor.

The HTML Editor is more of a "classic" forum editor.  It only displays plain text and a quasi-HTML like markup language, and then provides a "Preview" button to display the formatted result.  This editor actually has advantages over the WYSIWYG editor when it comes to controlling white-space in numbered lists, line breaks without gapping for a new paragraph, etc.

Examples of all of the formatting options are always available by clicking the symbols link in the left margin.

The HTML Editor looks like this:

Here is a screenshot I took from another Keynote tool, KITE:



I also did a rolling screencam showing the above procedure step by step, which you can watch by clicking this link: Watch a narrated movie of restoring KITE layout.

I will expand on this idea later with additional posts to this thread, but for now let me just say that this free (for now) tool is extremely well suited for online community sharing. Whether in a post here or just an email or instant message to a colleague, a jing-captured image or movie is easy to make and easy to share.

I highlighted and annotated the screenshot above, gave it a name and pressed one button. Jing uploaded the screenshot to my ftp server and generated a ready-to-paste URL. I came into this message and pasted it. Done.

I'm not a paid promoter of jing, but I am a happy user.

Here is a quick FAQ from the www.jingproject.com.

If you have two minutes to learn a little more, check out the playful little explanation of how jing came about and what you can do with it: video demo of the idea behind jing.
