Blessed...

17 GORGEOUS GRANDCHILDREN - HOW MUCH MORE BLESSED COULD A GRANDAD BE!
I hope this note will accompany a slide show of the said grandchildren which I uploaded to Photobucket tonight. If they don't appear I'll have to consult with Matthew again tomorrow!

Hi Dad,

Close! But not quite there yet...

If someone was to cut and paste the URL address that is in your post title, into their web browser, it will at least take them to the Slievemoyle page on the PhotoBucket site, and they can then view the photos individually.

I suspect that's not what you intended though. To get a slideshow working within your blog:

1. Log in to PhotoBucket
2. Click on the Slideshow link
3. Choose the type of slideshow you want (there are many different styles within each of the categories)
4. Add the photos from your album into the slideshow by click on the images (there's a little 'plus' sign beside them)
5. Choose the size of the slideshow (small, medium, large)
6. Once you click on "Finish" or whatever the next step button is called (I don't exactly remember), you'll be shown the finished slideshow and it'll be saved among your album images. It will have a "Tag" address listed under it which is a small piece of HTML text. Select that text in full, and copy it (Press Ctrl key and C at the same time).
7. Go to Blogger, and begin a new post.
8. Where you would normally type your message (the "Compose" tab), there is an "Edit HTML" tab. Click on this tab. Paste the HTML text that you have copied into this area (Paste by hitting Ctrl key and V key at the same time).
9. Click on the "Compose" tab again and you should see your slideshow. Add any text and a title as desired. If for some reason you don't see the slideshow, click on Preview. If you get a message saying that there are errors, double check that you copied and pasted the correct text.
10. Publish
