Tip: Adding Pictures to Your Post

Here are some tips, plus a video tutorial and step-by-step instructions, below…

TIP #1:

Find our own photos and images (mostly taken with the iPhone or iPad)

This is a temporary storage place. Once you find the photo you need, hold down the control key and click on the photo to save it to your desktop, then upload it to the blog using the instructions below.

TIP #2:

If you use an image from the web, download it (control+click to save it to your desktop), then upload it to the blog. That way, it will be a permanent part of our blog.
