How I do pix in Dreamwidth
Mar. 26th, 2022 11:48I'm not much of an HTML person. There are probably half a dozen ways to do this other than the following but this is simple for me and seems to work. I created a free Flickr account specifically for this process.
1 - From Flickr, open a picture.
2 - At the bottom right select the share arrow icon.
3 - FIRST TIME ONLY (when you set the selections, the program remembers) Select 'Embed' from the top menu. Change size to 'Small' (I've got 400 x 300).
4 - Click on the result in the window to turn it blue and copy.
5 - Back on Dreamwidth, go to Post.
From here are choices. What I do is:
Add verbiage in the 'Rich Text' mode until I want to paste the picture. Then click on the 'HTML' tab, position at the end of the text where I want the picture to be and paste what I copied from Flickr.
Repeat as necessary.
Check in preview to be sure I didn't screw it up.
