I have to say Stephen, this is one of the best tutorials on ebook publishing with sigil.. i bought the template.. it's also really awesome. good work bud.
Instead of juggling this "Enter" technique, I like to use the and tags to insert captions into an image. See how they would look in the video example: SS Fairsky, of the Sitmar line
4:31 ALT text is more importantly used to make pictures accessible to those vision impaired. You should really fix the ALT text to something like, "SS Fairsky."
Many thanks for your tutorials! I've got a request to create epub file. But it's a children's book with illustrations and text incorporated inside of the jpeg files. To my mind children's picture books are not good for the epub format. Anyway I have to create a correct epub book using colored JPEGs only...
Hi Svetlana. I created an ePub with 15 full page images + title for a friend who has a charity. It worked out great. I don't have the details right now as the project was finished and archived several years ago, but certainly is doable. Basically, the image needs to be created and inserted in each page. Other pages are normal text. The main work is in choosing size, proportion and creating or editing the images to suit.

Gunman, I'd have to see the code (Code View) associated with your image. Can you put a screenshot up somewhere that I can view? Are you using the CSS style from my template, or creating your own?
Thank you for your responses sir. I really do appreciate it. I uploaded the images here for you to view. Can you tell me what Im doing wrong? And yes I purchased your template with the CSS code and loaded it in the doc. ibb.co/eS32Gw ibb.co/nD603b
You have a class in the paragraph tag that wraps the image tag My guess is that the paragraph class is influencing the image placement. CCS means Cascading Style Sheets, indicating that styles are cascaded, or passed through to child tags. It seems that your parent class is dominating the child within. You can test my theory by removing class="P3" from the paragraph tag.

@@StephenOutram thank you so much! Yesterday I sent a file to my client and everything was fine.
I cannot get this image to float right and I have the styles loaded. What am i doing wrong?
