\"TinyWe've integrated the popular HTML editor, TinyMCE by Moxiecode Systems into some areas of the site where having full HTML editing super powers can help you put together a more compelling message. You can use the HTML editor in parts of the Merchant Profiles, in events, and classified ads. The TinyMCE editor is easy to use and has advanced features like copy and paste from existing web content. Literally, you can go to a webpage, highlight the part you want to use, copy it, and paste the page (images included) into the editor. Of course, make sure you either own or have permission to copy the content first!

Features

Cut and Paste From Webpages:
You can copy and paste from most live webpages. The editor will even know to copy the links to any images in your copied area, but you may need to do some layout editing after you paste because the hidden code that influences a web page's layout can not always be transferred with the content. Please be responsible about copyright law and content rights if you do indeed copy from another page that doesn't belong to you.

Font Styling:
You'll notice some familiar looking buttons at the top of the HTML editor that allows you to create different styles of text. If you know how to use a program like Microsoft Word, you should be able to figure out this editor in a snap. 

Create Hyperlinks:
To create a link, just highlight a string of text and click on the link icon to make those words a link.

Full Screen Mode:
If you the standard Social Wave text area is too constraining for the content that you're editing, click on the \"window\" icon to open up the editor in a full screen mode in a separate window. When you close the new window or when you click on the window icon again, your full screen editor window will close and your work will be returned back to the main window. 

Image Placement Tool:
Clicking on the \"Image\" icon will open a small window where you can insert links to images that you wish to include in your page. If you have any files uploaded in your filemanager, you will also have the option of selecting from previous images that you've uploaded to insert into your page. Once you have placed the image on your page, you can use this tool to edit it further or you can simply drag it around your page layout with your mouse.
