Mostly '''<nowiki>[[Image:{name}|thumb|Example image caption]]</nowiki>''' is used. Also, the image size is usually added through adding the size of the image, eg. 500 pixels: '''<nowiki>[[Image:{name}|thumb|Example image caption|Width in pixels px]]</nowiki>'''.
Whether the size is al right, using the 'Show preview' button at the bottom of the page can be used. Adjust the amount of pixels if necessary.
To check whether the size is alright, the 'Show preview' button at the bottom of the page can be used.

Simply 'copy' and 'paste' this syntax in the akvopedia article you are editing. When creating a new akvopedia article,''' Akvo_africa.jpg''' & '''Image title''' in the syntax can be changed to refer to the uploaded picture.  This syntax is also present in the standard [[Format akvopedia page| Akvopedia format]] page.

Other details are optional and are found under Step 3 of this article.
