Unsyching picasa (or whatever) stops storage of all future ones at least. My current challenge is how to delete the now blackened photos in my gallery. The mega byte storage is still high.

It was like they went into a gallery and they were all ones that were either on my blog or that I posted to Google Talk. I never even looked into why because everything is just so linked these days. I had no idea trying to remove them would cause issues, so thanks for that info.

Yes, it costs something. I don't recall the cost-- it depends on the total size of your blog. But it's not all that expensive. Some people print a separate book for each year of blogging. <br /><br />Enjoy your blogging break, and when you return, I hope you'll be filled with enthusiasm for blogging and especially for selling your completed manuscript.Cathyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16900383840255608898noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7908408097679531435.post-47221559208493343092015-06-03T03:47:40.021-07:002015-06-03T03:47:40.021-07:00How dreadful!

I'm with Angela - I just write a post, insert a photo and off I go. And at that, it's better than when I started, when you HAD to join some photo service and use a link to get it up on the blog. I've never been back to the one I used. <br /><br />I have followed that link and might pursue it later, but be aware that all these blog booking services start off nice and free and then suddenly they want money. Even more annoying are the ones that let you go through the four easy steps or whatever and THEN demand money before they turn your blog posts into an ebook. I ended up choosing some selected posts and ebooking them with Creative Bookbuilder, an iPad app that I am quite happy with - you can add sound if you want. Then I stashed them on Dropbox and place a link on my blog for people to help themselves. It doesn't do mobi, but it does epub and I think PDF.
