3. Select the place in the order where you want this picture or video to be listed, for instance, first.

4. Click either the Upload Animal Image button or check the Add Another and then click the Upload button.  By checking the  Add Another box, the image or video will save and you will be returned to the upload menu to upload another file. 

   NOTE

   If you upload more than one picture, when you are done, reorder the pictures in the order you want them to be displayed. The first image (order #1) is the primary image for the animal and will appear first on the animal detail page, and if the animal appears in sidebars or animal highlight sections. It will also be sent first in exports to adoption sites.

Adding photos or videos when adding a new animal

When you're adding a new animal, the media menu looks different - it's all icons - but it acts the same.

There are two ways to add videos to your animal's web page:

• Upload the video directly to the website
• Link to a YouTube video

Uploading a video to your website is exactly the same as uploading a picture:

2. Click the Choose File button to navigate to the file on your computer or device.
3. Select the place in the order where you want this video to be listed, for instance, first.  You can reorder later.

4. Click either the Upload a Video for this Animal button or check the Add Another and then click the Upload button.  By checking the  Add Another box, the image or video will save and you will be returned to the upload menu to upload another file.
