I do put photos on my blog but not too many because I think the ones I take are boring... :)) Usually my dogs or flowers in bloom outside in my yard. I need to get better about taking my camera with me everywhere in case there is a photo moment. I love seeing pictures of other people's kids, families, pets, lives. I'm such a people person and photos of their surrounding just brings them to life to me.....
And no 30 photos of cobbler or any other dessert is never too many. :))
HI Ree
Thank you for the tip about posting pictures externally!! Makes so much sense but I dont know anything about anything:) Will save me sooo much time later.
Oh, Ree. You just made my stomach hit the floor. My site's current design requires me to upload the photos to its media manager and won't show correctly if I use an outside photo manager (just in the posts). I plan to switch the design soon, and am worried about those photos. Reading this made me realize I've got to set a weekend aside and get them outta there!
Use all three photo hosting sites you listed, by the way (tee hee).
We lost a lot of pictures when we moved from Bundlo (awesome, but over now!) to Blogger...and until I read your class just now, I hadn't really thought hey, we're freakin' doing it AGAIN.
Hmm. So, now I think I'll take the extra step (who am I kidding, I'll have my husband do it) and upload to Flickr first.
Whoopsie. Thanks for helping me see the error of my ways! :)
Thank Ree. Great article. I have been following your site for a few months now and I am glad you are doing this series. And no 30 pictures of a cobbler is defintely not too many. Spoken from a person who can take 30 photos of her cat staring at a bird outside the window. I mean really ... at any SECOND something is bound to happen, right?
I never considered the fact that I would lose all my photos when I finally go self-hosted. I use wordpress, but I suspect it will be the same as blogger. Bummer. Thanks for the tip. I've gotta say that it made me completely depressed, but I'll get over it...I think. I don't know if I'll have the patience to go back and re-insert a year's worth of photos.
I just realized I didn't answer your questions...I upload my photos from my camera to my computer in folders. Then, I browse from my blog host site adn upload photos from that site. I just bought a new Canon this week and I noticed it takes alot longer for this process with the new camera.
I like to see all sorts of photos on blogs, but especially the landscape, scenery types, and flowers. But I am learning alot from your site. No, I don't think 30 photos of cobbler is too many. I think you need a photo for each step you do in the baking process. I am a visual learner. Love it all!! Thank you. I now know how much time it takes to post and I had no idea before.

You can NEVER have too many pictures of cobbler!

I just started a blog... taking notes... (and coming from an artist, no, you can never have too many photos.)
