Finally finding time to enjoy Photographica again. Here's one for the challenge...

Whatsit?    

 

OK, I'm into my learning curve again with this new format. Any helpful hints on inserting a thumb. And when I check for the challenge, nothing happens. Oh, and how do you preview? And this is supposed to be italics, but it didn't come thru that way.

    Looks like some sort of grass. It is nice, clear shot of whatever it is.

  • Like, it's burnt grass. well slightly burnt.

    I would try to help you out on the thumb and the text but my eyes won't stay open any longer. If no one has come to your aid by tomorrow I will get my pea brain in gear and try to help. 

    - So shoot already!!

  • My first thought was grass, but then decides on artifical grass.  Good macro.

    The way I do stories: 

    Upload images, if you have alot, putting them in reverse order might be helpful.
    Write up your story.
    To insert your image, highlight the text you wish to replace, click images icon, then your image.

    Wash, rinse, repeat.

    For thumbnail, choose from list at the right, and choose then right or left.

    For italic, bold, etc (or combo) highlight your text and click the icon.  (Also it is possible to click the icon or use the short cut keys and then type your text.  Remember to turn it off when done.)

    For previews: A whole lota clicking going on here.  Write your story, insert the pictures, get it as good as you can.  Click save (not publish!)  Now go to your name (under who's online) and click it.  Go to your stories.  Your just written story should be the first one, and it should be the way it'll show up when published.

    Like it?  Click edit, then publish.  No? Click edit, then change it to what you like.

    Wash, rinse, repeat.

     A nice thing about saving your stories, is you can enter a few lines then save then go back and change something.  Great for those times when you don't have alot of time for a long post.  Or the dog says I gotta go for a walk.  NOW!

    Thank you MrQ. Hmmm, me thinks I have a problem. Just went in to edit/use your instructions. Seems that the things in the right column (thumbnail, challenge option) don't respond at all to my clicking. That's what was going on yesterday. Wonder if it has anything to do with using Safari? Anyone out there using Safari and have problems?

    Too late, but I was thinking a big push broom.  Great shot!  :o)
