   Some example images are included in the course Training material.

   

5. Click Submit

   

6. To change the creative commons license (the default licence is the one you chose during the set up workflow) or annotate your image in other ways (taxonomic name, imaging technique, keywords, etc.) click on Edit media next to the respective image.

   If you upload several images, it is faster to use the Grid editor to edit several images at once (see Edit content)
