Week 3 Thing 5: Flickr

I wanted to put a picture of India and the Taj Mahal is one of the most easily identifiable images of India.  I found this in Flickr by searching for Taj Mahal.  Then I clicked under "share this" to get the HTML code.  When I put my avatar on this page I learned how to use the HTML code to get images onto the blog.

One thing I thought was interesting about the photo is in the bottom right hand corner there is a copywrite.  Can anyone copywrite their photos?  And why would you want to?  If you are putting them on Flickr for everyone to see and download, what does a copywrite really do?

Week #2 Thing #3

Hi,


I made a blog. At first I tried one of the other blog sites but it wasn't as user friendly as Blogger and I wasn't able to figure out how to get my avatar on it.


It took me awhile to make the avatar, mainly because I didn't realize there were suggested places so I searched until I found a site I could use.


After I had already made my avatar, I saw the links to sites and went and played around on some of them but in the end decided to keep mine as is.


The End.
