Did you know you can attach nearly any type of inventory item to a notecard? Attached images and landmarks can make a fabulous addition to informational notecards, and notecards-within-notecards can provide you with some interesting options for organizing your text.

To attach an inventory item to your notecard:

  1. Open a notecard you own or create a new notecard.
  2. Make sure the item you wish to attach is fully permissive. The next owner permissions must allow copy, modify, and transfer.
  3. Drag the item from your Inventory window onto the notecard window. You can drop in any kind of inventory item, excluding calling cards.
  4. The item appears as a hyperlink in the notecard. You've done it!
