How to put pictures on my blog page, etc.

I have noticed that many of you have posted pictures, etc. on your blog page and I would like to find out how to do it. Also, is it possible to post links on the blog page? I'm sure it is, but I have no clue how I would go about doing it. Thanks. drfaust

When you sign in, you have the dashboard option. From the dashboard, I go to layout. Then there is an "add a page element." From there you can choose to add a picture and links.

Hope this helps.

If you want the picture to embed in the post, there is an icon (a little photo) in the toolbar above the box where you type in the text. Click on that and it pops up a window. You can add the photo from your computer or from a Web site. Choose the options you want (photo size--and large is really large--and position. Click done.) Once the image in in the text box, you can cut and paste anywhere on that entry. Video works in a similar way--click on the video icon and follw the instructions. Might take a few tries until you see how it works.

To link--there is a little icon that looks like chain links in the tool bar above the post box. Click that and enter the URL in the box that pops up. That should do it.

If you are creating your draft post in Word, Command (Apple)K opens a box to enter the URL, too. Then, if you copy and paste that into the Blogger text box, the link *should* work.
