You should try reading Katherine's helpful entry about how to do book covers, which is right here...she gives a very detailed explanation that has helped a bunch of folks figure it out.
crazuyfor24- first I upload my image to photobocket, then right click on image and copy URL click tree editor and then paste URL in "image URL" ":Image Description" Descirbe image(eg book cover), "alignment"(my covers are usually left), "dimensions"(I use 115X175 for book covers), the border, horizontal. vertical # are the space around picture(I usually go for 5, 5, 5) I use photobucket in order to be able to use other images. but the problem can arise if photobucket goes down so do my images. I've had this happen with images from fictiondb and wild Rose
and if you want to take it directly from site right click, copy URL then paste and keep following the instructions as if photobucket wasn't a factor
i am off the the next two days so i can play w/ it i have dial up so pocket site is just to slow for me. i have not had a photo ablum on line before and i do not have digtal camera so this is all now to me.
keep trying again
My best friend is a person who will give me a book that i have not read yet.

Take a break from trying for a bit...photos are fun to have in your blog but not a necessity, especially if they're making you frustrated!
If you do decide to go back to it, though, feel free to ask for help--we all know the blogs have a bit of a learning curve and, even though the site is well-designed, they can be hard to learn.
