The title of the Guide should have the following format:

With the code [X] being [E] for English, as the first letter of the language used in the text (use [F] for French, [E/F] is both languages are used)
The description can be any short text

The Use of Pictures
Three easy series of steps to add pictures in your Guide
1) Upload your picture(s) in the Album
- Open the Album (link in the top menu)
- Select the corresponding area (Hokkaido, Tohoku, etc)
- Click on the button "Add Picture"
- If you want to add multiple pictures, click on "Add File" until you have the correct number of link lines (up to 6 pictures per upload)
- Write a title for the picture; If you are uploading multiple pictures, the titles will be TITLE - 1, TITLE - 2, TITLE - 3, etc.
- A description can be written (not mandatory)
- Select the pictures you want to upload from your computer
- Send the files
2) Check the Id of the pictures
- Browse the Album to find your pictures displayed as thumbnails
- Under the thumbnails, remember the number written on the "Id" line
3) Insert the pictures in your article
This will insert a thumbnail picture with a link to the full-size image.
- Click on the button "Insert Image" : 
- Click on OK for inserting a picture from the album
- Enter the Id of the picture obtained on the previous step
- If you wish so, you can specify a special formatting
Repeat the operation for each picture you want to add...
