Ok...I've finally got myself in order and some data is been added into google doc..but..how do you get your photos added into the list?

I put the cursor where the picture is to go
Header line with commands has an 'insert' button
This brings up a lot of options
click on 'image'
this brings up a blue button 'choose an image to upload'
click that and it goes to my desktop where I put the filename of the photo into the window and click on 'open' and upload.

I find that I usually have to make the picture much smaller by clicking on it, which puts a box around it.  I grab the bottom right 'blob' and drag it up and left to make the picture smaller.

Good luck!  There may be better ways of doing it, which I too would love to hear about  ;D
ARRGH...I've tried and tried...Instructions are clear and simple..that is how I would have done it too..but it just don't allow me to download my photos..I get message that my photo is too 'large'..and they are not! They are well bellow the limit..(I'm pulling my hair out here ::))..is it my camera or puter that makes my life so difficult.. ??? >:(

I post pictures pretty much the same as Galina describes although rather than enter a file name I just click my pictures and then double click the picture I want. If you would like to email me your pictures I hopefully should be able to add them for you.

Back in the loop  :) Phew!

Just need to remember how to access and sign in to the google doc so I can edit....... I have a post-it note with what I sent, which needs a bit of transcribing  ;)

And sorry folks for the delay.... I'm now back in the Alps, and it's blinking freezing and here I am looking at pics of seeds and plants taken in the summer, and all I can see and feel is sun and warmth. Something I don' have right now  :)

I took two large bagfuls of parcels to the post office today, Yayyyyyyyyyy ;D Luckily they were sweet and checked each one for me despite the queue building up!

Unfortunately I left two items out of each parcel :o But if it's ok with everyone I'm not going to worry about them til after Christmas

Thank-you Jayb . Getting just a bit too excited now, I bought from a charity stall yesterday a 1950's American  cigarette box   it is all polished and ready.

ME TOO  ;D

I've been so good, no peeking in envelopes, no searching on Google....I sooo want to open my parcel but I think as I've gone this far I'm going to wait for Christmas!

Love the sound of your cigarette box, is it already decorated or will you add your own artistic flare  ;D

The box is silver plate ( nothing less would do ) and has a picture of a windmill and sailing boat  - a child -Gemma in 4G has used it as a pencil case at some stage , it has real allotment chic about it, not unlike myself......ho ho ho.
I will send some more stamps.
Thanks again.
