If your photos are on your computer and not hosted on another website

Step One: Make sure your photos are resized to a width of 500px (or less). This keeps the space size (MB) down and also fits well on most computers’ browsers. To do this use any photo-editing software and resize the image. [Height can be whatever size, keeping the correct aspect ratio.]

Step Two: Inside where you write a post there is an upload section. Click the “choose file” button and a window opens that lets you browse your computer’s files to find your photo. Select that file.

Step Three: Give the photo a title and description (if desired) and then pick “upload”. It should upload as long as the file is not overly huge (which is why we resize it first)

Step Four: A new set of options appear where you can place the photo into your post. Select the radio buttons for “full size”, link to “none” and pick send to editor button.

Step Five: Your photo should appear:
Wood Thrush

Note: To move the placement of the photo in the post, select all the text within the “<" and ">” including the little brackets. It will say img src=the file name and then an end bracket. This is code that tells the web browser to display the photo.

I will be upgrading the blog soon to make this process even easier and more straightforward and will repost instructions then.
