This entry is under construction while I try to figure out (once again) how to post an image to a Dreamwidth entry without the process taking half a day.
Okay, still can't link to images on Google Photos. How about Shutterfly? Doesn't seem to work. Okay, I'll upload the image to the Dreamwidth gallery. NOW WHAT?? The only online help I can find just says "Dreamwidth has an image hosting service." It doesn't say how you get those images to appear in an entry.
Try uploading the image, copying the URL, opening the image icon and pasting in the URL. I don't see an image, just a placeholder icon.
Does it show up in Preview mode? Nope. Well, let's try saving it and see what happens. Nope. All I see is the image icon.

Can anybody help me? Why is this so much harder than LJ???
