Since we have changed over to the new platform on Jan,2017, we no longer post pics as I have instructed below. Here is the new way to do it.

   To post a picture to a blog, you need a direct link. I use google chrome as my browser so this is how i do the searches. Google.com and in the search bar, i type anything that i want. I typed Christmas here. Then click on images. (where the black circle is)

   

  

   

   Click on a pic that you like and it will take you to a page like this.

    Right click on your mouse and a box will appear, click on, open image in a new tab.

  

   

   Then click on this address, (it will hightlight in blue) right click and copy

   

  

   then at bottome of someones blog click on to comment.  Then click on where the red arrow is...

   

  

   paste that link that your copied from the pic you wanted here...

  

   

  

   After pasting that link there, click on anywhere in the light blue area and you will see your pic in that box that says preview...to the left of that box,,,u can adjust your width and height. I usually put in 350 or 400 on width and the height automatically adjusts itself. After that click on ok, then post.

About the Author
I am 51 yrs old and live in the Greater Cleveland area. I started smoking at a young age. I think it was more peer pressure at that time and just a few cigarettes a day until i became "LEGAL" to smoke. I then started smoking a pack or more a day, using stress as my excuse to smoke more. In reality, I realized after i quit smoking that there is no excuses for smoking. I am approaching 4 yrs next month, but I still have to work to protect my quit. I am here on Ex faithfully helping others and in return helps me. We call it here on Ex "Collateral Kindness" here is a link to my blog, 1 yr later that explained my trials in the the beginning of my quit. https://excommunity.becomeanex.org/blogs/ShawnP-blog/2013/03/14/one-year-later
