-All three fields are REQUIRED to have a visible news item.+Title and abstract are shown on the MVPR front page while the news page will show also the body. The body can contain HTML markup. For style reasons, avoid HTML in title and abstract.
  
-=== Adding or modifying research pages === +=== Updating bibliography === 
-The research pages can be accessed under pages/ directory by modifying the appropriate .inc.php file.+Bibliography is in BibTeX format and can be accessed as data/bibliography.bib. Everybody is responsible for updating their own publications. 
 + 
 +Use the following style: 
 +  * Do not leave any empty or unused fields such as OPT fields generated by Emacs. 
 +  * Field //url// is used to link to the PDF of the publication. The link will be shown with text "pdf". 
 +    * Place the PDFs under data/. For example, see Laaksonen et al., Humanoids 2010. 
 +  * For Scandinavian letters etc. do not use utf-8 or Latin-1 encodings but instead use LaTeX markup. 
 + 
 +Note that the whole BibTeX entry is visible to the user by clicking at the //[bib]// button so do not leave comments and such. 
 + 
 +=== Updating research pages === 
 +The research pages can be accessed under the pages/ directory by modifying the appropriate .inc.php file.
  
 The files for each research topic are: The files for each research topic are:

-* medimg.inc.php (Medical Imaging)+  * medimg.inc.php (Medical Imaging) 
 + 
 +Each research topic has one 150x150 image on the research main page.
  
-If you add any images, please add them under the images/ directory.+If you add any images, please place them under the images/ directory. Alignment and presentation of images can be manipulated with styles. 
 +Unaligned image with default borders: <code><img src="" alt="" /></code> 
 +Right-aligned image with default borders: <code><img src="" alt="" class="right" /></code> 
 +Left-aligned image with default borders: <code><img src="" alt="" class="left" /></code> 
 +Image with no borders: <code><img src="" alt="" class="noborder" /></code> 
 +Note that you can apply these styles simultaneously. E.g. <code><img src="" alt="" class="right,noborder" /></code>
  
 +Additionally, try to write valid XHTML markup. E.g. Remember to add quatation marks around values and alt parameters with value for images. Remember to close every opened tag and validate your pages with [[http://validator.w3.org/|W3C Validator]] from now and then.
