How to Add Images & Links to Documents

Here's an example of a post that includes an image from a Google folder. You will quickly run out of space for images/files if you upload them to your blogger blog directly.

Here's how to do this:

1. Ensure that you are logged into the account that you are using for your blog work. (In this case, I am using my educbe account).
2. Create a folder in your Google Drive for all of the files/photos you would like to share. I created an overall folder called Teacher Blog 2018-2019 and then created these folders inside: Photos, Math, ELA, Science, Social Studies so that I can be organized. You can do what works for you.
3. Upload your photo into your Google Drive folder. (Note: it's best for you to name the photos with a descriptive name instead of the default number so that it's easier for you to find them in the future).
4. Click on the photo so that you can view it.
1. In the very top right corner of the screen, click on the 3 dots (menu) and then click 'share' as if you are trying to share your image with someone else.
2. Set the image to 'anyone with the link can view' and then copy the URL to the image.
5. Go to your blog (in another tab to keep things manageable). Open the page/blog post you wish to insert the photo into.
6. Click on the 'insert image' option in the menu bar. Then click 'from URL'.
7. Paste the URL for the image into the space provided. You should now see a preview of the image. Then press 'add selected'. 

This method is the same one you can use for adding links to documents in your Google Drive. In this case, simply use 'Link' instead of 'Insert Image' in step 6.

Happy uploading!
