Re: photo sharing

Actually, I think there are captions... the caption for that one is "Of course walking home alone was always uphill", yes?

I think possibly the issue, which did trick me the first time, is that you have to click on the photo so that it brings it up properly.  The first screen is the 'thumbnails', which is a bit misleading because, since there's only one, it's huge.

When you click on the photo itself, it moves it to the centre and then the caption appears in the bottom-left.

Trouble is -- there are no captions. So whoever looks at them has no idea why the photo is (to me!) interesting. I've added "info" for each photo but it's not obvious that the info is there. (If it's even possible to see it.)

I tried Instagram, couldn't see any option to actually load a photo. I tried Flickr, no captions but it did come with a virus. I'm reluctant to try Facebook since I could never understand it...

Any thoughts?

Thanks!

hmmm... I may go back to a Powerpoint slide show, stored on Dropbox or Drive...
