Promises, promises

Did most of my list (it took longer than I expected), felt virtuous, had a quick look at some pictures...well actually, not quite such a quick look, well rather a long look...well..Bother!
Er got up. I say no more. I am covered in shame. Both spirit and flesh were unwilling and weak. And what am I doing now? Not what I should be doing!

What program do you use to get those great effects?

The wonderful, free, Picasa. Um, not quite sure how to put a link in here but I'll put one in my next post:)
It's great...just a dozen or so really simple effects and quick photo fixes and it automatically scans your computer for images and catalogues them for you (without changing your current system).

It is a free download from Google at http://picasa.google.com/download/index.html

I've never worked out how you get more than one picture in a post. If you have the time you could explain that to me please.

Talking about your time. Or should that be timekeeping. I don't think you should try to change it. If you move into a different time zone you could end up bumping into all sorts of things that you don't normally encounter :<)

Fred, do you use the blogger dashboard/new post to make posts? If so, in the posting window, at the top of the preview window, there's an 'add image button'. if you click on that you get a window where you can add images from computer or another URL.
There's a 'browse' button to select your image and immediately above that there's an 'add another image' link.
You can add as many images as you like before hitting upload.
Also, in the posting window you can return to the add image window as often as you like before hitting publish.
I hope this helps and I'm not being obvious and you've tried all this already:).

Thanks, I'll give that a go later. Must confess I hadn't really tried anything more than looking at the screen with a completely blank mind. I just blog straight out of Picasa as a rule.

I've never done it straight from Picasa so I don't know if you get the same set of windows. good luck anyway :)

I just checked...you don't get the same window. I guess you have to go http://www.blogger.com/home and log in from there. It's the same basic set up but there are things missing from Picasa, like links and the extra bits in the upload window.
