Hi everybody. I'm sure you're thinking I'm going to post a diary here explaining all of that. Alas, no.
I'm asking YOU to explain all of that, and then add tags as appropriate, so that I (or anyone) can thus reference this diary when confused people like me need help. Thanks if you can.
There are a variety of things that are unclear to me about posting photos here.
- What's legal? When valiant diarist Patriot Daily News Clearinghouse sets all those photos so niftily into her news digests, how does that work in the context of copyright issues? In other words; how do we work legally with posting images generated by people other than ourselves here?
- It's easy to post a link to a photo, that comes up as a link. But if one wants to post an actual photo, what are the rules with regards to site parameters and bandwidth issues about what's cool and what is not?
- It's also not obvious here how to format diaries with photos that aren't just inserted above and below text. There are people here who know how to work the text around them adroitly; where can others go to learn how to do this? Links anyone?
- Which photosharing sites are okay to use here? How do you work with them, if you are teh stupid about this stuff like I am?
If anyone can provide links or write up answers or otherwise discuss these issues here, I will, like I wrote above, be duly appreciative, etc.
Thanks.
Miep
