I’ve been blogging for a few months now and I may be the only one doing this, but typing in that little box and uploading photos that mess up my spacing is driving me insane. I have also noticed for awhile now that many of my photos that look crystal clear in Adobe Photoshop Elements are quite blurry once I post them. I’ve looked at several other blog sites and found that their pictures are much more clear than mine. I finally got up the courage to ask someone what they were doing. This tip was given to me by Angie over at The Arthur Clan. She’s co-founder of another blog that I’ve fallen in love with… I Heart Faces.
I’m currently typing this in Microsoft Windows Live Writer. It takes a little bit of time to download and install the program, but I’m typing in a screen that looks just like my live blog. Flower border and green in the middle. I can actually see both paragraphs as I type. And, the coolest part of all, once I upload a picture I can click and drag a corner to resize it instead of editing the HTML.
If you’re all smarter than me, you’ve already found a cool tool to use and it’s just me that’s behind the learning curve, but if you’re not and you’ve been doing it the same way I was, let me know and I’ll send you the link where you can download the software. This is only my second post using it and did I mention that it’s AWESOME!!!
Thanks again Angie!
That sounds AWESOME!!!! I've never heard of it, but will be downloading that TONIGHT. How many hours do I spend just on correcting the darn spacing? And glad you figured out the blurry picture thing... I thought it was just the size you were posting or something. Yay for things made easy!
