I decided to try something different for this month’s edition of “What’s Blooming.” I’d seen several people using WordPress’s new slideshow feature, so I thought I’d give it a try. It turned out to be fairly easy, although I don’t know if I’d use it all the time. It seemed I had to upload these images directly from my computer’s hard drive; there may be a way to do it using Flickr, but if so, I haven’t quite figured that out. If you have figured this out, could you kindly let me know how to do it too? Isn’t there some sort of space limitations here on WordPress if you upload media directly to your blog rather than using a hosting site like Flickr? This newbie blogger welcomes any WordPress tips you’d like to pass along.
I hope you will let me know what you think of seeing this edition of What’s Blooming, slideshow style. I have captions written on each of the shots, and I believe you can use pause, play, forward and back controls on the slideshow by hovering your mouse over it.
