photo help

Hi Pat! I don't know your device, but it's usually very simple. Go to the 'options' tab, click on ad photos, and just follow the instructions from there. Your pics need to be less than 3megabytes in size, or they won't upload. I never need to resize the ones I take on my IPad though, so hopefully you should be ok. If not, you'll need to ask someone else, as I've no idea how to resize a photo on a tablet! Hope this helps a bit! :)

P.s. Options tab is right at the top of the page! Looking forward to seeing your pics!

hi Cottagekarer...thanks for taking the time to help...unfortunately, I seem to be missing the link, step, route, whatever it is that joins my laptop to goy... in order to select my photo, i have to leave goy and go back to my iPhoto library [i think]and i'm not sure how to manage picking out the correct photo. i tried clicking on one, went back to goy, filled out all pertinent questions, clicked on publish [t hink that's what it's called] and something happened..the little round ball twirled for a bit, then stopped, my screen went white so i tried to find the photo on goy, but it did't show up anywhere..perhaps i'll have to go back to the store for further instructions...too bad i didn't think of this on my first trip..i suspect each trip will cost me some money...well, never mind, i'll just persevere...thanks again, one thing i did find out, my photos are ok as far as size goes, and i have found the rotate button...so, one step at a time....patricia...;o]]

You should be able to get GOY on your laptop simply by typing Grows on You into Google. Is your iphoto library on the laptop or on an ipad? If both are on the laptop all you need to do is to make a list of the file names of each photo you want to add. Then select the ones on your list in the box that says Browse.

thanks, Steragram...after reading your helpful response, it occurred to me that perhaps i need to give each photo a file name...i have an apple laptop, and my problem is not getting to goy, but rather posting my pics on goy, and i think [hope] the missing link is naming my pics ...i'm going to go back to my iPhotos library on the laptop, and see if i can figure out how to do that..fingers crossed...pat..:o]]

hi again...I've been able to post some pics..still not sure how each pic got a file number, but that was certainly one thing i was missing...that, and going to browse..thanks for the tip, Steragram..saved me a second trip to the store....now i have to keep at it until i have the system clear in my head..that'l take a bit of time! LOL...pat

Hurray! You're getting there Pat!

Arrived late Pat but pleased you are managing, it seems awkward at first but practise makes perfect, you'll soon get the hang of it....Had a look at your pics Pat, well done, no stopping you now, lol....

thanks, Cottagekarer..i couldn't have done it without your help...it makes the garden seem "more" somehow when you can share it with others...i'm a happy lassie!!!:o]]

hi there, Lincslass...nothing like encouragement to keep a person going...i was feeling a bit down about leaving my old garden [my old friend]...but you-all have cheered me up immensely...AND i found eight daffodils just barely coming through the patio bed, and two in the sunny ramp bed...i thought they had frozen solid....oh, joy!!!!

Steragram..thanks so much for your help...it was the "browse" hint that made all the difference...now i feel like a real member here...looking forward to many happy garden moments with everyone, not to mention learning from all of you and your lovely gardens...yipeeeee:o]]

It must have been a big wrench for you Pat but its all onwards and upwards now, its a beautiful very colourful springtime here, you have yours just beginning..

thanks for your help and encouragement, Cottagekarer, i'm sorry to be so slow responding to your posts...i get a bit confused yet as to who i've answered, and who i've missed..and there's been so many kind comments, helpful suggestions, etc. i got a bit lost, there...rest assured your posts are much appreciated :o]]...pat..

Lincslass....yes, it was stressful...don't miss the house at all, but the garden!..oh, the garden......mostly trees and perennials...all old friends..still, i now have this "young kid" to look after...already i'm quite fond of my tree [whatever it is..think i'd know that, wouldn't you..just planted it last year!], and i managed to bring a few plants with me, and there's now 8 daffodils in the patio bed, and one brave soul in the sunny ramp bed..things are looking up:o]]......pat..
