Tip: Link image sources in their captions

Here’s a tip to collect images you find online without losing track of where they came from. When you find an image you like, download it to your computer and then upload it to a Backpack page. Then create a link in the caption to where the image came from.

For example, the first rug photo below came from this page. After I uploaded the image to Backpack, I typed this in the caption:

"Source":http://www.spongobongo.com/daxv826a.htm

That created a link called “Source” that goes straight to where I found the photo. I did this for each image, and now I can get details on each rug whenever I want by clicking the “Source” links.
