REPOST: BLOGGING TIPS

Hey all - I think it is time to reintroduce everyone on how to blog! I've been getting emails from various folks on things that they have been up to, things to add to the blog, etc. Unfortunately, I don't have time to keep up with everyone's posts - so please try to learn to post things yourself!That would be a great help to me, and get things posted timely. I love getting the emails on what you all have been up to, but with everything I'm doing at the moment, I just don't have the time to post things for you. Help with posting for birthdays, etc, would be GREATLY appreciated. I will definitely help if you have trouble posting, but I can't be the sole poster for this information any longer.
Below is the information from long ago on how to post:
-------------------------------------------------------------
It's funny that I'm writing "tips" considering this is the first blog I've particpated on. If you "blog gurus" (i.e. Justin) have additional tips, please advise! My tips are very basic and will help with getting started.

To become listed as a "contributor" to this blog, you will need to log in with a username (email address) and password. I used my gmail account address and password, I'm not sure if you have to have a gmail address or if any email address works? Maybe someone else knows??

Once a contributor, your name will be listed on the right panel. You'll also be able to create new posts and make edits to other items on the right panel (e.g. Birthdays), but you'll need to be logged in to do so.

Once you log in, you can Post but clicking on the "Posting Tab" on the left hand side of the screen. From there, you have the option of "New Post" or "Edit Posts." Click on "New Post" and you should be able to see a box where you can type a message - just like any Word Processing program.
If you want to put in a picture into your post, there is a button along the top of the screen where you type your message right next to the abc check mark button. Click on that and follow the instructions to upload an image.
After you finish typing your message, click on "Publish Post" on the bottom left of the screen - it is an orange button.
OK - I hope this helps each of you post messages!!
Love,
Sonal
