How to insert pictures?

This is a "how to" on how to insert pictures or graphics into your blog or other posting.

The first step is to click on the 'tree' icon.

First step, click 'tree'

Now the following window pops up. If you have your image hosted somewhere else, you can just enter the url and click insert. Otherwise to upload the image, click on the 'browse' icon.

At this point Internet Explorer may block the pop up, or any other popup blocker you have installed. If you loo at the top of the main window you should a little notice to that affect. If you click on it, select 'allow popups from this site.' and try again.

 

Now the following window pops up. Click on 'Browse' to select the file you want to upload. Then click 'upload'. After the file is uploaded, it will appear in the list at the top. Find the picture and click 'add'.

The previous window will close after you click 'add'. And you are back at the other window, notice the image url is now filled in. You can add an image description, and click 'insert'. Your picture is now in your blog.

Hope this helps.

Posting pics to your blog

I tried both ways above Eric and it would not work. Firstly I had the image saved to my desktop so I clicked on BROWSE and nothing happened. Then I tried to insert the URL and in the preview of the posting it showed up as a broken html image link. Cheers Simone

pop up blocker

I just tried it in IE and it seems the popup blocker, prevents the browse window from coming up. In the main window at the top will be a little notice to that affect. Click on it for options and select "allow pop ups from this site"

try firefox

IE has a lot of problems. I recommend Firefox for web browsing. And you would be able to insert your pictures.

firefox

I already use firefox - haven't touched IE in forever!
I have no probs uploading pics into my blogspot blog site.
