3.  Images
Inserting images is easy. All you have to do is right click any image that you want, and then go to "Save Image As' Save the image anwhere you want, and then in Composer, go to Insert, go down to Image. From the Image menu, you can type in the image address in by hand if you want, or you can open an image you saved. Go to choose file, and then find the image you want. Click open, type in some alternate text in the alternate text bar, and press OK. The image will be inserted wherever your cursor is.



To delete an image, click on it and press the Delete button on your keyboard.

To insert a link in your website, highlight the text or image you want to turn into a link and right-click on it. Go down to Create Link. From there you can enter the address of the site you want to link to, or you can go to Choose File and choose another web page that you made and saved. Click OK and the image or text you want to be a link will now be alink. Save your web page, and your links will be permanent.

5. Tables
  
  To create a table to insert images and text in, go to Insert, and then Table, or just click on the table button on the toolbar. From there you can choose how many rows and columns you want on your table, with some other options. Choose your table's dimensions, and click OK. You will have inserted a table where your cursor was.

    To edit your table's properties, right click on it  and go to Table Cell Properties. From there you can edit the options of one table cell or the entire table.


    To remove a table, click on it. On the top of the lefternmost cell, you will see two arrows and an X. Click on the X to remove each cell. Click on it enough times to remove the entire table.
    Table cells are like individual web pages. You can change their background, add different font, have individual alignment,etc. This is why people use tables.
