Posting Your Picture to Your Profile (part 2)

Here is where it gets tricky. You will need to have TWO (2) windows open.

In one window you need to do what you did to post the picture originally: Go to your dashboard. Hit the name of your blog and it will bring up the screen where you can make a posting or changes to your template. Click under the "tab" that says "posting" then click "create" tab. Make sure you're in "compose" instead of Edit Html.

In the second window, Go to your dashborad. On the right hand side click "Edit Profile". Go to the section that says "photograph". You will need to put in the URL. This is where it gets hard but it's worth it. THE IMPORTANT THING IS YOUR PICTURE CANNOT BE LARGER THAN 50k! MAKE SURE IT FITS THE SIZE REQUIREMENT!

Go back to the first window. Click "Edit" for the post which has the picture you want. Once the post comes up (you'll see what you wrote in the window), change to the tab that says "Edit Html" at the top of the area with your post in it. You will be picking up the http address of the picture you posted. Now this is hard but bear with it. You put the picture at the beginning of your post, right? So what you're looking for will be right there at the top. Highlight the part that says: http://wordsandnameofpicture.jpg by holding down the left button of your mouse and dragging it all the way to the end butdon't copy the <> at either end. Now once it's highlighted, press Control-C.

In the second window in your "Edit Profile" section, under "photograph", press Control-V and it will paste that into your box. This points your profile to that picture to pick it up.

At the bottom of the page, save your profile.

Go back to your dashboard by clicking on "dashboard" at the top, and go look at your blog. Your picture should be there. If that doesn't work, try it again. If your picture is too big, you will get an error message and you won't be able to post it.

Hope that works for you!
