Julie Kagawa ARC Contest and Learning More About Blogger

Okay, first things first.
The wonderful author of the 'Iron Fey' books series, Julie Kagawa, is hosting a giveaway over on her blog for a signed ARC copy of her new book, The Immortal Rules. It's international, so you don't have to worry about where in the world you live and it definitely looks like a good book :)
The linky for it is here.


And onto a slightly more serious topic - though not much more!

I've been on Blogger since November-time. So far I've worked out most aspects of the Dashboard and how to write, edit and decorate my blog. Unfortunately my expertise does not extend much beyond that.
Up until about ten minutes ago I had no idea how to put in a hyperlink. As shown above ^ I have now worked out how it is done.
But I realised when I first joined that I'd have to learn a lot, in order to make my blog interesting.
Sadly I still haven't worked out how to put pictures in, therefore so far my posts have not been very exciting in that respect.
If anyone knows how I include pictures, please, feel free to share your knowledge with me. I won't bite (much).

This probably won't be a very useful post to anyone, but thanks for taking the time to read it anyway.

  1. First, when you're creating a post, on the top, there's a lot of icons(hint:that's where you found your hyperlink!), and click on the one that looks like a picture in a square frame. A dialog box will pop out that requires you to browse your computer files for pictures/search it on the internet.
    Once you'd your picture of interest that you wanted to download, you copy the url of the picture and paste it on the box where it says you can download it from internet/you can save the picture you found into your computer files, and then click browse on the window, of which will open your files, and just click on that picture from your file, and then click ok. And there you have it!
    Hope that's useful. And not confusing...

  2. Thank you! :D
    Be warned: there are going to be a lot of photos on this blog from now on :) When not writing, photography is one of my hobbies.
    Thanks again
