How to Add a Photo to Your Blogger Posts

Photos add an extra zing of interest and appeal to a blog post.  They help your reader identify with you and your blog.  Fortunately adding a photo to your blogger post is a fairly straightforward process. 

Step 1  Click on New Post

Step 2  Write your post as you would.  If you want your image to be inserted in the beginning of your post then you’ll follow these steps next.  If you want your image to be contained within your post then you can write until you’re ready to insert an image.  Additionally, you can write the entire post and then go back and place your cursor where you want the image to be and follow the remaining steps.

Step 3  On the toolbar you’ll see an image. Run your cursor over that image and it will say “add image”  Click on that.

Step 4  A screen will pop up that allows you to upload an image from your computer or to upload an image from the web.  Maximum size is 8MB.  You can upload a jpg, gif, bmp, or png image.  If you’re uploading an image from your computer you will be prompted to browse your files to locate the image and upload it.  If you’re uploading an image from the web, you’ll need to enter the URL of the image. 

Step 5  Once your image is uploaded you can decide how you want it presented.  Do you want it left justified, right justified or centered on your blog post?

Step 6  Choose the size of image you want.  Larger images are easier to see however, they can take up a lot of space.

Step 7  Accept the terms of service and then click upload. 

Step 8  Preview the post to make sure it looks like how you want it to appear.  If it does, then you can save your post and publish it.
