First, please don't be so hard on yourself. Second, we're happy to walk you through the steps for using your blog. We'd really like you to be able to upload photos.

If you ever find yourself at your dashboard with none of the blogging tabs available, make sure it says toby gt pyr in the top left corner. If it says Tripawds Blogs, click My Sites (under Dashboard or in the grey Admin Bar at top).

You can upload photos directly to your Media Library by clicking the Media -> Add New tab. Or, you can upload them when writing a post using the small Upload/Insert Image button directy above the Post editor window.

To publish a post, go to Posts -> Add New.

To add a page to your blog: Pages -> Add New.

How else can we help? These are the most basic Tripawds Blog functions. You can do much more, like changing your blog's theme, adding sidebar widgets, and much more. But if you just want to use your blog as a place to upload photos so you can post them in the forums, watch the Media Library tutorial video then follow these steps for adding images to forum posts.

FYI: When you publish blog posts the Tripawds community will be notified via the Recent Posts widget (see top right) and Blogs directory page. There are no site-wide announcements for forum posts.

Send a PM (use inbox button at top right and click compose) if you want to schedule a time to chat!
