What is best free site to create blog
 
I have tried blogspot-keeps having issues loading pictures. I want to be able to have lots of pictures and position them where I want. I want a freebie place as well. Any and all suggestions welcomed.

Thanks!

Have you tried using Live Writer with blogger?
I have found it to be much easier to get pictures the size and where I want them.

(I tried WordPad -I think that is what the other free one is called-about a year ago--I found it to be much less flexible--but perhaps they have updated it since)

Looks great but I am on my MAC most of the time. This might force me to email myself pics just to make blogging easier.

What a cool program! I can post in any font I want now! Really, Bloggers, this is something (FREE) to look into!

Thanks for sharing this!

So what do you do ~ create your post in Live Writer then just copy & paste??

Even better! You create it in Live Writer and then click Publish IN LIVE WRITER! It hooks up right to your blog!

Hmmmm....I'll definitely have to check it out. Thanks :)

I have Wordpress. It is free and is pretty basic. It gives you a few options on picture positioning. I have heard that the pay for service wordpress is great.

The installed WP is even greater :)

You're welcome. But to give credit where credit is due: Julesiana was the one who originally posted about it.

I hope you like it as much as I do!

OMG thank you. This is what I was looking for. I was having such a hard time uploading multiple pics.

Thank you.

Thank you, thank you, thank you. Live writer is installing as I write. I really hope that it's as good as it looks.

Check out my blog now and over the next few days to see what you think.

I'm hoping for mega improvements.
