wk 3 flickr photo

Staying cool on a hot day in the early part of last century must have been difficult. At a time when the victorian era required a woman to be swathed in layers and lengths, one can understand the smiles on these faces.
I love this photo. Usually family photos were sombre and formal but this captures the delight of play...obviously spur of the moment.
However, getting this far with wk 3 has been a nightmare. I have imported this directly from my own home file, not from flickr file cos I couldn't understand how to go about it. Instructions were vague and ended up having to ring elsewhere for help!! I still don't know how to go about importing a flickr file. Iwas so looking forward to using the program but this has put me off somewhat!!

I am glad you are persisting. This is a great image.

Thank you for providing feedback on the instructions.

It is a delicate balance about how many to provide.

These may help.

The easiest way to upload an image to your blog from Flickr is to

1. register for a yahoo e-mail address
2. use the yahoo e-mail address to log in to Flickr
3. search for an image to upload
4. go to the main screen for that photograph (for example http://www.flickr.com/photos/darrenstone/395110954/)
5. at this screen (when you are logged in to Flickr) you will see a small icon above the photograph saying "blog this"
6. click on this and you will then be asked to link your blog to the Flickr account (you must agree to this or nothing happens)
7. You can add text to your blog post at this time, or you can edit your blog post from your blog dashboard.

Please ring if you need further help!
