<i>The different symbols</i>

<img src="doc/img/camera.png" width="44" height="33" alt="editor" align="left" style="padding-bottom: 20px;"> This symbol is used to upload a picture from your computer. If you only want to add an adress (url), you can also use the "tree" symbol at the upper part of the editor. After selecting an image, you'll see a thumbnail at the editor.

<img src="doc/img/paper_clip.png" width="44" height="33" alt="paper_clip" align="left"> This symbol is used to add files from your computer. There'll be no preview of the content.

<img src="doc/img/chain.png" width="44" height="33" alt="chain" align="left"> This symbol is used to add an adress (url). You'll see a short preview of the website.
<p style="clear:both;"></p>

<img src="doc/img/video.png" width="44" height="33" alt="video" align="left"> This symbol is used to add an adress (url) of a video file. You'll see a small preview of the video.

<img src="doc/img/globe.png" width="44" height="33" alt="globe" align="left"> This symbol is used to add your geographic location. This location will be added into a Google Maps search. That's why a note like "New York" or "10004" is already enough.
