Blog Tutorial





Hello, this is Kayci Ross. I am Karen Rogers' daughter and proud member of the Burr family. I am no pro at blogging, but I thought I might help you figure out how to post a picture for those of you that don't know. Here are the steps. It looks like a lot, but it really does go fast.

1. Click on the "posting" tab at the top of the page - directly under The Burr Connection.

2. Click on "Create"

3. Type in a title and then begin typing in the box provided.

4. Make sure that your picture/s are downloaded from your camera to your computer. ie: My pictures, My documents.

5. To post a picture just click on the picture icon located above where you are typing and below the title line. The picture icon looks like a mountain scene in a tiny box. It's squeezed between the ABC check mark and what looks like a movie film strip.

6. Click on the picture icon and a window will pop up asking if you'd like to add an image.

7. click on the "browse" button and make sure the heading says "my pictures" or "my documents" - where ever your picture is saved.

8. type in the file name or just click on the picture in your list of items.

9. If you'd like to add more images just click on the underlined phrase "add another image" and repeat steps 7-8.

10. Don't forget to choose the layout, image size and check the box for terms of service.

11. Click on "upload image" button.

12. Your image/s will take a little bit to upload to the site.

13. Double check your post by using the preview option in the upper right hand corner.

14. Click on "hide preview" to make corrections.

15. When you're happy with what you have and you've use the spell check button (the ABC with the check mark under it) click on "Publish Post" at the bottom.


You've done it! Congratulations! Please add another post giving more directions if these don't suffice. My family and I have a blog ourselves at http://www.truittross.blogspot.com/.

Blessings,

Kayci, Josh, Truitt (and baby on the way)
