Sorry for the delay in answering this question. Yes, just attach the images. We'll handle the HTML for images on our end.

Hi All, I'm chugging through the HTML now -- slow going for an amateur! I may have missed this in Laura's instructions, but is is OK to embed links in our installments? And can they point to locations on the web other than our individual…

If we use images, do we just attach all of them? I'm not sure I understand quite how/where they'll be hosted if we use them. It seems like the html for that would depend on where they're hosted, right? Many thanks for all these…

Cross-promotion?

Hi, peoples--

I don't know how you feel about cross-promoting each other's sites, but I put most of the extern sites/blogs I could find in a blogroll, on mine. (It's here; just scroll down on the left, to see it.)

If yours is missing from the blogroll, would you mind letting me know, please? I'll be glad to add it.

Thanks,
Erin

My site

Edited to add: I ditched the website. :( I couldn't find a template that had both a custom-header option and Czech-language support (which I need, since the recipes are in Czech) and I could no longer waste time on fiddling with code, and cursing. So my project is now here: http://theghostinthepantry.wordpress.com. I hate giving up on things, but I lost a lot of time that I could have spent on content. OH, WELL. ;)

We have also posted a lot of the links mentioned at that meeting in the Forum. (Please note that we… Continue
