Uploading Music

1. When you upload music it can take a few minutes to code it. Then it will appear in your music bin.

2. Music in your music bin does not automatically appear on your site. This allows you to upload music pre-release date.

3. Click on the 'music' link to add music to your microsite. At this stage it will be available to preview.

4. To make music available to buy you must set a price for the track.

Uploading Images

1. When you upload images the best size is 130 x 130 pixels.

2. The format must be jpeg.

3. Images stored in your image bin can be used on more than one page.

4. When you put an image on the site for the left hand panel try and make it one with the Captive State name visible. Then we can use it on the homepage at some point and direct more people to your site.
