How to post on blogger

I just realized that some of you may not know how to post to blogger!! Here is a little run down of how the process works;

Step 1; Login to Blogger.com using your gmail account information

Step 2: Find the I Heart Photos blog in your blog line up and from here we'll continue on as if we were creating a new post. To do that you'd select the blue button "New Post". You could also view the blog by clicking "View Blog";

Step 3: Once you click New Post a screen like the following will come up;

You'll want to title your post then compose your post in the larger white text square. To add photos click the photo button in the toolbar in between the link and the video take. Then the following screen will come up;
 Step 4; Select the location from which your photos will come in the left column. I almost always upload from my drive so I have "Upload" selected (highlighted in blue). Then select the "choose files" button and your drive upload screen will appear for you to choose your photos from directly off your hard drive. To select multiple photos at a time hold down the ctrl key while you select them or if they are all in a row you can hold the shift key and select the first and last photo in the series. All the in between photos will be selected as well. Then click "open" and your files will begin to load into the above screen. Once they are all uploaded they will be highlighted in blue. These are the selected photos that will be placed into your post. You can deselect them by just clicking on the one you'd like to take out of the post. Then click "Add Selected" and you'll be taken back to your post screen complete with pictures!

Step 5; To adjust the size and alignment of the photo click on it and the toolbar for the photo will come up. I usually use the Large size and center alignment.
 Step 6; Publish you post by clicking the Orange button at the bottom of your post screen and the following screen will come up;
You can return to the main page of the blog by clicking "View Blog" in the dark blue section at the top or you can view your post's page by clicking "View Post".

Hope that helps!! If there are any more questions about using blogger please feel free to ask!
