Identity plate for masthead not showing up in design mode

I've placed a .png image and a .jpeg image in the backlight/templates/upload images directory. They do not appear as choices in the drop down box for identity plate. Is a different file type required?

Hi Mark, I think we didn't explain the meaning of backlight/templates/upload images well.

By that, it should be click on the Backlight menu, followed by Templates then Upload Images.  These uploads are managed directly within the Backlight admin pages.

Re: Identity plate for masthead not showing up in design mode

Similar but different problem, I cant find the templates link!

Under backlight on the drop down menu I only have : settings, publisher, visit site Docu.. , Store. There is no 'templates' link to click on. And on the page itself is : backlight settings, manage users. Special links: view phpinfo, list phpmodules, phplite admin.

Should i be looking somewhere else?

I have backlight 1.0.4

The above should be the Designer menu, not Backlight.  Look for Designer -> Templates.

Also,  Backlight is at version 1.1.1
There are new features, updates, and bug fixes. Recommend updating.
