First: Begin by typing your message. When your done press enter twice to shift down from your message. Since the damn blogger won't let me type the fomula do this: Open another screen and log on to blogger again (you can be logged on more that once). Go to the Help section of blogger (top of the edit blog screen or at the bottom of the dashboard), go to Posting and edditing, then 'How do I post pictures?' They have the same formula there. The alt="Example" thing is optional. Either way, to end the sequence, put a space between your end quotes, either after you picture address of at the closing of you alt blurb type /> you're done. Save your work and re-enter the update. You should see your picture, If you don't keep reading.
You can also turn a picture into a link by saving your file and re-entering the update through the Edit Blog section. If the picture shows up as an X you typed something in wrong. Be careful: Everything must appear exactly as it appears in the picture's properties section. To find this bit of information, find the picture you want and right click on it. Open properties and copy the full url.
Copy and pasting does not work!!!! Now, once the picture finally shows up as you want it to, highlite it and press the hyperlink button at the top of your tool bar. Type the address in of the link you want it to lead to and press enter. For this you can copy adn paste. In order to make sure your link works you must save your updat and open the full blog. Put your mouse over the picture, if it turns into a hand that means you have a link. Now click it to make sure that the link takes you to where you want it to go.
That's it. Any confussion, just let me know. You know where to find me...
