Once it's on the page (like this example to the left), click on it and the picture options will appear - you can make it smaller or larger, add a caption, and change the alignment.

All the word cloud makers offer the option for you to save your finished word cloud as a file, to copy & paste the word cloud into another document, or to take a screenshot of the word cloud, edit it in Paint, and then save it as a picture file. If you save it as a picture file, follow the directions below. If you are able to simply copy and paste your word cloud, then by all means, you can go that route as well. 1. Once you have your word cloud as a picture file, all you have to do is click the picture icon above (it looks like an outside snapshot and when you hover your mouse over it, it says, "**Insert Images and Files**." 2. Next, click on the "**+Upload Files**" button, browse to find your poster file, click "**open**" to upload it to the wiki, and then double-click on the filename to paste it onto your wiki page. 3. Once it's on the page (like this example to the left), click on it and the picture options will appear - you can make it smaller or larger, add a caption, and change the alignment. 4. Below your word cloud, remember, you'll list the included 50 words, ** highlight ** 10 of the words and then explain in 2-3 sentences (each) why they are significant. You may want to do this in Google docs first, and then use the widget tool to embed the document. Or, you may simply choose to use the "edit" feature on your wiki page and type in the words & explanation manually.

Play around with the other widgets available on wikispaces. There's a fun one that allows you to create a button that looks just like the "like" button that you see on Facebook; there's one that allows you to post a Google map -- maybe you could post a map of where your story takes place, or where your author lives? Get creative! Make your wiki page a reflection of the book you read.
