Hi TM,

The text on the ISS page was munged, I cleaned it up a bit, check it to
make sure I didn't mess up your meanings. It was full of odd codes and
things. I'm not sure why you're having such a difficult time with the
formatting.

When you Edit a page, are you seeing an edit window for your text which
has a toolbar at the top? The word "Wikitext" is the left uppermost tool
button on the bar.

For adding pictures, first upload them (which you say you have).

Then position your cursor where you want the picture to be, then on the
toolbar press the Image button (little yellow box with a mountain or some
pointy thing in it).

This should create a little popup window. You start by typing the first
letters of your image name and the box will search for image files with
that name. Select the one you want, add dimensions or borders or things
(the dimensions work here, don't know about borders) and press "OK."

You may need to drag the image to put it where you want it.
