SharpSchool Container Portlet - Clip Art & Images

Here are two ways to add images to the content portlet on your web site.  (A content portlet is a web part that allows you to type/format text and insert images.  When editing the portlet, it gives you most of the same options as when you create a word document!)  You ALREADY have a content portlet on your site… it is the part where you can type your name!
