Tips and Tricks

Often, there are ways of doing things with a program which are not immediately apparent, and sometimes, you're able to use a program to do things that the program wasn't originally designed for.

Thumbnailing
Having a smaller image link to a larger image is known as thumbnailing. You can link an image to another image by taking advantage of Image Placeholders from within an Article's Content or Summary field. Use the :url modifier of image placeholders to insert the full url to the uploaded image:

<a href="***image2:url***" target="blank"><img src="***image1:url***"></a>

This would treat image 1 as a thumbnail, linking it to image 2, the larger image.
