Add a photo to any page
A photo that lives only in your camera roll isn't doing your website any good. On a bernard-hosted site, getting it onto a page is a paste and a sentence — no upload screens, no image editor.
How it works
- Get your access prompt. Log in to bernard, open your site, and copy the prompt from Edit with AI (it contains a key that works for 12 hours).
- Paste it into your AI — ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini, whichever you already use — then paste the photo into the same chat and say where it should go, or use the prompt below.
- Approve. The AI sends back a preview link. Check the photo sits where you wanted, press Approve, and it's live.
Tell the AI what the photo shows and it writes the caption and the description search engines read — so the image helps people find you, not just look at you. If it needs shaping first — a square crop, a wide header — see Crop or resize a photo; if it's going in place of an old picture, Replace a photo anywhere on my site is the shorter ask.
The prompt
“Here's a photo — add it to my [page name] page, [where it should sit, e.g. at the top / next to the text about my workshop], with a short caption saying [what it shows].”
The [bracketed] parts are yours to fill in. First time? Log in to bernard → your site → Edit with AI → copy your access prompt, paste that into your AI first, then ask the above.
Questions people ask
- How do I add a photo to a page on my website?
- If your site is hosted with bernard, paste the photo into a chat with your AI — ChatGPT, Claude or Gemini — and say which page it belongs on. The AI puts it in place and sends you a preview to approve before anything goes live.
- Will a big photo slow my site down?
- No — every photo is made web-ready on its way in: shrunk to a sensible size, converted to a fast format, and stripped of hidden data like the location your phone recorded. A six-megabyte photo typically lands at a fraction of that.
- What if I paste a photo and then change my mind?
- Nothing touches your site until you approve the preview, and a photo you never use is tidied away on its own after a week. Each file can be up to 10 MB, and your site has 500 MB of space overall.
