more Thing 4: What a GREAT IDEA.. or maybe not...see the post that is above this one

After looking at what St. Johns and St. Bens libraries are doing with photos with links to their catalogs, I am full of ideas on using this to connect with our library users!

(Edited..see post above this one...there may be no way to get the photo with the pop up link into one's blog and/or website...maybe it only pops up in Flickr?? If so, not what I want to do)

So, had to figure out how to add a note that will pop up upon mousing over the photo. This is easy...just click on the Add A Note icon above your photo.

Then, how to make it link...well that is html. Couldn't remember the syntax:



Just to get the line to show the actual code above was a challenge! Since Blogger is an html editor itself, if you put in the code, it just changes to a highlighted link. I had to copy the code from another source and put it into a picture editor (used Fireworks)and save it as a .png image and then edit it to a better size in some MS picture editor and then upload it as no format and move the code in the blog entry to where I wanted it!

Now I want to show you the photo!
