To add music to your wiki requires a flash widget embed code that is offered by the music site. That code is found mostly under an option at the host site labeled "SHARE" or "EMBED". The code must be copied and pasted into the Other widget tool in Easy Edit mode of your page. Youtube and Google have their own widget tool on Wetpaint. When using either of them, you must select "Old Code" when selecting the embedded code at those sites. If you are copying an already created widget on a Wetpaint wiki, a simple paste to your page will work.

Images such as Gifs have to have a Wetpaint address to work. To get a gif onto a wiki page use the photo tool in easy edit mode and add your gif that way. If you are copying a gif from another WP page a simple copy and paste will work.

If you are referencing an animated Gif. which is a series of images, the Gif cannot be resized or else it will lose its animation. Make sure the file size of the original Gif is less than 500k or it will be resized by Wetpaint and animation will be lost.
