How to Upload Files in Blogspot

Photographs from your recent vacation can be uploaded to your blog.

Blogger, the free publishing platform owned by Google, allows users to upload images onto their domain service provider, Blogspot. Blogspot is a place where you can publish web-logs, or "blogs." Currently, the only file type that you can upload to your Blogger account is image files. To do this, you will need to create a new post, and then upload the image file through the provided plug-in. You can upload images from your computer or from the Web, and you can specify the size and positioning of the image in your blog post.

Things You'll Need

• Blogger account

Instructions

1. Log in to your Google account and visit your blog; then click "Dashboard."

2. Click the "New Post" button. Then click the "Add Image" icon in the top frame of the post editor (mouse over the icons to display the description of each icon; the "Add Image" icon is the blue-colored square icon). This will open the "Upload Images" dialog box.

3. Click the "Browse" button to locate your image on your computer or include the Web address of the image you would like to upload from the Web. Define the size (click the "Small," "Medium" or "Large" radio button) and positioning ("None," "Left," "Center" or "Right") to choose the layout of your image on your blog.

4. Accept the terms of service by clicking the radio button next to "I accept the Terms of Service." Then click "Upload Image."
