Editing an image in Contribute In Contribute, you can edit an image's brightness and contrast, sharpening, cropping, and dimensions. To make more advanced edits, you can edit images in an external image-editing application. For more information, see "Editing an image in an external application" on page 109. Note: When you edit an image in Contribute, Contribute creates a copy of the image you are editing, so edits affect only this instance of the image. When you use Contribute to edit an image in an external application, you edit the original image source file, so these edits affect all instances of that image on your website. This section covers the following topics: • "Adjusting the brightness and contrast of an image" on page 106 • "Sharpening an image" on page 107 • "Cropping an image" on page 107 • "Resizing an image" on page 108 • "Rotating an image" on page 109 Adjusting the brightness and contrast of an image You can adjust the contrast or brightness of an image. This affects the highlights, shadows, and midtones of an image. You typically adjust brightness and contrast to correct images that are too dark or too light. Note: Changing an image this way affects only this instance of the image; it does not affect the original image source file. To adjust the brightness and contrast of an image: 1 In your draft, select the image you want to adjust. 2 Do one of the following: • Click the Brightness/Contrast button in the image editing toolbar. • Select Format > Edit Image > Adjust Brightness and Contrast. • Right-click (Windows) or Control-click (Macintosh) the image, and then select Edit Image > Adjust Brightness and Contrast. Note: These options are not available if you belong to a user role that the Contribute administrator has restricted from inline image editing.
