Photoblogging - I finally figured it out!
Photoblogging is finally here!!!!
Barcelona - architecture galore.
Imagine this – I am in the process of working on 2 websites without a bit of knowledge of website design and HTML programming. As a matter of fact, blogging with www.blogger.com is a simple as it gets and anyone with basic literacy skills can do it too. My main website, www.youtravelcheap.com , is hosted on www.1and1.com where I use a template site builder to work on my site. I know, it’s pretty basic, but I wanted to get some of my content on the net without needing a web designer or spending hundreds of hours of courses to do it.
View of the inner courtyard of the monastery of Montserrat.
But one thing was bugging me – I love photography and although you can see my travel photos http://community.webshots.com/user/vanguard111 I wanted to add some images to my blogs, particularly to the travel blogs. And I just couldn’t figure out how to do it!
Another work of art in Ronda.
So finally yesterday I spent a good many hours, downloading a free software called Picasa which is basically an image editor and which is set up to work with www.blogger.com . In conjunction with another free software called “Hello” it allows me to actually touch up my pictures, organize them and upload them to my blog. I was very excited. For someone with no graphic/web design expertise these are little feats of accomplishment that I am extremely happy about.
Magnificent flowers on Ibiza.
So now that our image capability is here, I’ll include some of my favourite pictures, which will allow all of us to catch a few colourful moments away from these dreary days of winter.
Barcelonan architecture.
The church in Sitges, a gorgeous place.
Toronto's "Necropolis" - a very old and beautiful cemetery.
A little hideaway on Ibiza's north coast.
The Campanile in Piran on the Slovenian Coast.

Thank you, you saved me a lot of time. I had been wondering about how to add pictures to my two blogs. I want to write about the faces of Oregon and it seemed funny to write about people and then not include their photo. thanks again. I got her from a link to your article about Barbara Winter. thanks again. TomofGresham.
