And voila, you lot have reached Eclipse's journal editor. A meaning alter from DeviantArt green to Eclipse is the centralizing of DA'southward give-and-take processor. While on the old site you could write journals from sta.sh or the journal page, Eclipse brings everything to one easy-to-find spot.
There are a lot of pieces to the journal editor page. We'll choice them apart in the adjacent section...

Now that we have the lay of the land, we need to chat about Comprehend Images. Carry on, traveler!
Encompass Images
Eclipse's journal editor allows you to very easily add a comprehend prototype (note: this is optional) to your journal. This can have a variety of uses. Whether your journal is part of a regular serial (using the same cover paradigm) or you lot desire to feature an amazing artwork that caught your attention (hello generous curators!) the comprehend prototype is a great way to brand your periodical pop.
Just click the "Add Cover" button and select an image from your gallery or sta.sh:
Formatting Text
Text formatting is a great way to call attention to a particular word, emphasize your very important points, and separate sections of really, really long Eclipse tutorials. They can help your watchers and readers have an enjoyable feel reading your thoughts and admiring your curating skills!
And it'due south super like shooting fish in a barrel to kick. Simply highlight the word or grouping of words you want to format. Once highlighted, a window will appear with a diversity of options allowing you to brand text bold, italicized, underlined, or 2 dissimilar styles of header (T1 and T2).
You can so become wild and plow your unorganized thoughts into an efficiently numbered or bulleted listing! And if you lot're quoting someone profound (like me ) yous can highlight that text and turn information technology into an eye-catching block quote.
Words are slap-up, especially for the lit types, just when y'all're looking to add some visual flair to your periodical... WHO YOU GONNA CALL?
Why, Mr. Rogers, of course! (just continue reading)
Adding and Formatting Media
For the curators and art appreciators of DeviantArt, you lot may desire to include visual or literature artwork to your journals. This is a slap-up way to break upwards longer sections of text or even focus in on a central theme or idea you're hoping to get across to those reading your journal!
Adding an Prototype
To begin, simply click the plus sign icon (this only pops upward on a new line, information technology won't popular upwardly on the same line every bit existing text) and select the Add Epitome icon.
Which brings you to a carte where you tin can insert an image from your gallery, collections, sta.sh, or somewhere else on DeviantArt. You can fifty-fifty upload a piece directly to your sta.sh from this menu.
In one case y'all select your
epitome, just click the green Select button at the bottom right and your prototype shall appear.
IMPORTANT Annotation:You tin can also insert unmarried images by copying and pasting the URL into the journal straight!
Formatting an Paradigm
Clicking a unmarried image (this volition not piece of work for galleries!) allows yous several new formatting options for Eclipse's journal editor.
From left to correct, the formatting options are a whole image, a left-aligned epitome, a correct-aligned image, linking the epitome, changing it out, or removing it altogether. When adjustment left or right, you'll observe things shift on the screen! Y'all tin can format text to the reverse side of an aligned image. Accept fun experimenting with these options.
Linking an Image
Sometimes you will want to have the prototype you insert link the reader elsewhere. It could be a dissimilar DA page or anywhere else on the cyberspace. But how practise?! Click the epitome again to bring up the formatting toolbar, then select the link icon (you know, the icon that is literally ii links). One time you do that, a window volition appear that allows you to add together a URL and create your linking image!
IMPORTANT Note: The linking choice will only announced on images you insert from sta.sh. Considering uploaded deviations from your gallery, collections, or DeviantArt already link directly to a deviation page, y'all can't ask them to link somewhere unlike!
Adding Galleries
Head on dorsum to the Linking an Paradigm subsection. Recollect that toolbar? Let's click the 2nd icon, which is going to allow u.s. to insert a group of images. Once yous click it, you'll be presented with a bill of fare that allows you to insert a gallery, drove, a group of images from sta.sh, or images from DeviantArt.
Important Notation: Calculation a gallery is a great tool with an important restriction. The multiple images you're about to select must come from one location! The images must come from one gallery folder, i collection folder, one sta.sh folder, or i folio on the DeviantArt card (you tin can search for images in at that place simply you can but select from the single search results folio). So if y'all know you want to select images from multiple areas, you will desire to group those into a single spot earlier getting to this point.
Let'south select my APN Daily Deviations collection and go some images into this journal. Once you lot're inside a binder/collection/etc. just click the images you lot want to add. You'll come across a tally (highlighted below) letting you know how many you've selected out of 24 max.
When you're done, click the greenish Select button.
Formatting Galleries
Galleries have their own set of formatting tools to easily fit a lot of images into one journal. Click whatever of the images to select the unabridged block. Then a toolbar appears with options to change the orientation of the gallery deviations, pick new deviations, or remove the gallery altogether.
*NOTE: Gallery formatting options only work when adding groups of images from a gallery or drove. This will non piece of work if y'all're only adding individual images.
The starting time choice is the default: Filigree view. This will organize the deviations in 2 columns of equal width and superlative.
This tin can be platonic for many layouts but in some instances it may cut off an prototype (like the beheaded insect above) and y'all'll want to check out the Masonry option. This volition orient the deviations according to their size, creating a mosaic of artwork instead of two columns.
Both options assist artwork exist displayed neatly and beautifully (with insect heads intact!). It is up to y'all which option fits your periodical the all-time!
Adding Video, Emoticons, and GIFs:
The last three options when adding media are much simpler than images and galleries! Eclipse's periodical editor finally gives us the chance to easily embed YouTube videos direct into a journal! Simply click the video actor icon and insert the YouTube URL you desire to display:
Emoticons and avatars can be easily added using the smiley face up icon. A carte will announced with options to add Official emoticons, Community emoticons, or user avatars. You can also click the search icon and type something specific!
And finally the GIF card. Just click and you'll be able to quick search for the proper GIF for any journal. In our case, creepy Mr. Rogers:
Clicking the arrows volition permit you select a new GIF while the trashcan will remove it. Which I am doing... now.
Bye, Mr. Rogers.
