How
can I add a picture?

You will see the uploaded image in the preview panel. You can adjust the thumbnail for this image using the crop function. Click on Save thumbnail when you are satisfied.
You can also select where this image will appear by tagging the image to a match (you can even specify an action such as a goal), a player, a team, etc. The image will appear in the Videos and Images of the pages it was tagged with. For instance, if I tag an image with the name of two players and with a team name, the image will appear in the Videos and Images of these two players and of that team.

How do I tag (or associate) news, image or video?
When you create a news, post an image or a video you'll be asked to what or whom you want to tag this to.
When you are on a specific page (such as a player page, a team page...), you will have a button to add a news in the news tab, in this case the news will be automatically tagged to the page you were on.
Similarly if you click on upload an image or upload a video from the videos & images tab of a particular page, it will be automatically tagged to that page.
On a match page, after the match has been commentated, you will see a timeline with all the match actions (goals, shots, corners...). You can upload a video or an image simply by clicking on that action and selecting add a video or add an image. The media will be automatically tagged to this action and will be available to viewers simply by clicking on that action or in the videos & image tab of the match.
