Hover the mouse over the about page that appeared in your album project and press Edit to add content to the page.


Step 5. Add content to About page

Start by selecting the photo you want to use, it can be a photo of you or why not an image you think represents you. If you don't want to have a photo at all you can just skip uploading one. Then add an appropriate heading, "About me" for example or why not use your name as heading. Now you just have to add the text! The image to the right shows you how the page looks in the album.

If you want to divide your text into different paragraphs you can do that by using the html tag <br/> , add one for each line break you want.

Step 6. Contact and About page in the album

I assume you are now in preview mode, if not, please press Make album or just go to the preview tab. The Contact and the About buttons have been added in the bottom of the album, if you are happy with this you can consider it done!

If you are not happy with the placement of the About and Contact buttons you can actually move them to a top menu. Go to settings >> Turtle >> Site and fill the tick the checkbox Show top navigation. If you have sub folders in the album they will also show in the top menu, if you don't like that you can just tick the checkbox Exclude folders.




Step 8. Done!

When you have done all the above steps your album should look something like this:
