edrodgers Posted January 10, 2008 Share Posted January 10, 2008 If you are willing to pay for it, get a web host and install WordPress. I pay $10 per month for my host and three domain names, (1and1.com) and I have no restrictions on how I blog. If you ever want to try a different blogging system, just install it and try it out in another directory. There are tons of free options out there, and it isn't too difficult. Family stuff: edrodgers.com is WordPress Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jana w. Posted January 10, 2008 Share Posted January 10, 2008 I like typepad.com. You can change how you want your images to upload (click thumbnail for larger picture or post large photo in the text. I think it is 5.99/month. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
colleendonovan Posted January 10, 2008 Share Posted January 10, 2008 Hi Juliet, I have a blogger blog also and can tell you how to make your images bigger. Blogger is very customizable - you just need to learn a little bit of HTML. Or have someone tell you what to do. :) Email me if you'd like the info. I'm not completely done customizing my blogger blog, but the pictures are the size I like. You can see it here - <a href = "http://www.colleendonovan.blogspot.com">Colleen Donovan Photography Blog</a>. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
michelle a. Posted January 10, 2008 Share Posted January 10, 2008 If you host your images somewhere else and then link the images from blogger.com to there you can have them any size you like. When adding images from another host the code is <img src="the url of your image"> and that's it. I use a blogger site as well, you can check it out if you'd like.... http://michelleamarante.blogspot.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
meldell Posted January 11, 2008 Share Posted January 11, 2008 Yep I use Blogger and I make my images larger by going in and changing some easy code by hand! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aleximages Posted January 16, 2008 Share Posted January 16, 2008 I prefer self hosting which give you much more flexibility. and thousand of wordpress theme are available on google. from single column to 3 column format. Yes it will take sometime to read in wordpress forum but the effort is worth while. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
g.e._masana Posted September 9, 2008 Share Posted September 9, 2008 <p>Turns out my web host offers wordpress and all I had to basically do was click, click and it was set up. So check your control panel for your web hosting and see what's available. You may be surprised.</p> <p><A HREF="http://www.gemasana.com/blog" TARGET="_new">My blog</A></p> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
