The Bishop and the Butterfly: Murder, Politics, and the End of the Jazz Age
    we are stardust's picture

    I could use some more technical help (she said while tearing her hair out...): Redux

    I took this down too early; my apologies.  I thought I was just gettin it out of the way for other, more universal blogs.  It was requested that I re-publish it and the comments.  If they don't appear, I can cut and paste them into comments, I'd guess.  Here goes.

    Some of you have been kind enough to help me, and thank you again.  Some of your help got through to me.  I spent about 4 hours yesterday trying to get a picture into my blog, but failed.

    Here are the hints I received before.  I am using WinWord, as my Notepad has almost zero functions on the Menu bar.  I assume that if I add a picture correctly, it will show up when I press Preview, yes?

    Wendy,
    If you are working in MS Word click INSERT from the menu, click HYPERLINK. When you have the HYPERLINK dialog click the selection BROWSED PAGES. That will show your recent browsed pages. Select the one with the image you want in your document.

    Another method, maybe simpler, is from your browser RIGHT click the image on the actual live web page. Select PROPERTIES in the right click dialog. The properties dialog will show the exact http address of the image. Copy and paste that address into your word document.

    Some of the suggestions like Widgets, etc. are Greek to me; and I have no notion of what composing in HTML means unless it's HoTMeaL :-}.

    I tried to find Moveable Type instructions for this question, and struck out at the bottom of the ninth.

    'Bout all I have to trade is birrrd photos, ain't even got a cheezeburger lately.  I'll take this post down once I get it worked through.  Thank you in advance. 

    Oh--when I click the Moveable type image button, it says Error, no source data or something like that.
