Buttons to the Rescue: Where Do We Start



Buttons are a great way to let others know what you are doing, your opinions, and what swaps you are involved in. Here is some info on how to do that.

  • First right click on the button and 'copy image location' or 'save image as' and then save it to your computer.
  • From here you need to find a photo hosting sight such as 'Flickr', 'Yahoo', 'AOL'. This will host your photo with out taking up the bandwidth of the sight you are taking the button from. Upload and save to your photo sharing site and copy the URL. If you are using flick you click on 'All Sizes' and scroll down and you will find number 2 will give you the URL to save and use (copy this).
  • Then when you want to add it to your page you use Configure HTML/Javascript and use this for posting... 1. a href="SWAP LINK HERE" 2. - 3. img src="LINK FROM FLICKR WITH THE SITE ADDRESS"/4. (this is not the full HTML code - but how you make it correct is by putting <> brackets around each of the links above (where I have placed the numbers). If you need assistance with this I will be happy to email the full look of the code, because blogger will not allow me to post it here. k1t2DevonATgmail.com)
  • This will post the button and link it to the swap page.
  • Hope this helps!
Happy Swapping everyone and thank you for those of you who have already put up your questionnaire! We do hope this tea party proves to be just what everyone needs as we finish up the summer months.

Do enjoy some tea and scones if you'd like!

Please?

If you find your link - or someone else's - isn't working, please let me know. Right now, there's some sort of problem with our work ISP, as in it's not operational, so I'm stuck trying to get everything done from home. Of course, I have obligations a couple of nights this week too, just to keep it interesting...


Also, Monica created an awesome button for us! Thanks, Monica. You're such a diverse, talented group, and we look forward to getting to know all of you over the next few weeks.

Thanks to my awesome co-hostesses, Devon and Mary, we have buttons already. Please respect our bandwidth and download the photo accordingly, and button away!
