Uploading Photos

Hi Sue,

Greetings (again) from Lord Fly,

Luckily my laptop was on when your post arrived. The steps are as follows:-

First, click the “Write a post” tag as normal.

Scroll down the page until you see the line headed “File”. 

At the end of this line is the “Browse” tag.Click on this and find the photo you wish to upload. 

Click on the photo and then on the “Open” tag on the Pictures folder.  This will cause the location of the photo to be copied onto the “File” line on your blog.

Next click on the “Upload” tag just below the “Browse” button on your post. 

This uploads the photo into the space below your post. 

Click “Send to Editor”.

The photo then moves up inthe Post area.

Click on “Publish” to publish your photo to the blog.The photo will appear as a small thumbnail, but a click on it on the blog will enlarge it to its original size.

If you are uploading more than one photo onto one post, instead of clicking on “Publish” click on “Save and continue editing”.  This will save that photo and then make available the “File”, “Browse”, and “Upload” buttons to upload another photo(s).

From your post it seems as if you are not clicking “Open” after selecting your photo.  Check that the location of your photo gets copied into the “File” line.  If it is there the upload will work ok.

Nice to hear from you again,

Lord Fly of Bogland.

Another chuckle from Clarice

Have just had a nice conversation with aunt Clarice who gave me a little story to share with you.

The local vicar called on one of his senior citizen parishioners and over a cup of tea tried to turn the conversation round to spiritual matters.

“Mrs P”, he said, “Do you ever give any thought to the hereafter?”

“Eeee, bless you”, replied Mrs P, “I think about the hereafter many times a day”.

The vicar couldn’t really believe this and said, “Really, Mrs P, that is wonderful!”

“Oh yes”, said Mrs. P.  “I can’t count the number of times I go upstairs and when I get there ask myself “What the heck did I come up here after”.

Up loading Photos or perhaps that should read NOT uploading photos!!

Just been trying to upload some Cuban photos but I seem to fail at the point where Lord Fly tells me to click on upload as when I do that my photos do not appear anywhere. What am I doing wrong?

No time now so I will try again another time when Ihave received further expert advice from all those computer whizzes out there. 

 Tata for now

New photos of Gabriela and Baby Jonathan

Well, I might as well make hay while the sun shines and grab another post while no-one else is doing so.

Herewith more delightful pictures of James’ and Kasia’s little ones.

The one of Jonathan is as he is now; those of Gabriela were taken within the past month or so.

As their proud dad would say, Enjoy!
