image

Hi All,

I'm just installing MediaWiki (loving it). I'm lookin at this for adding images. I can se the logic of

[[File:MediaWiki:Image sample|50px]]

but where so I set the filepath for "File" (nothing obvious in LocalSettings.php) ... or is there some other logic at work?

I'd appreciate any help Thanks
