e-mailing posts - i still have to

well i'm really not sure i understand the e-mailing posts feature. today i signed on for the first time since i sent in the e-mail posting. it wasn't posted but was saved as a draft so that i could hit the publish button today. very useful! not.
oh dear and look at that formating! what a mess. oh well.

test the e-mail posting feature

Today I''m testing 2 features. one is the ability to send the blog to
someone by e-mail. if that worked, and you know who you are, leave a
comments so i know. i've opened up commenting so you can post a comment
even if you aren't a member of blogspot.
the other feature is the ability to e-mail in my blog. with this
feature i write up my blog in my email program and hit send and we'll
see how it turns out.
I suppose this would be useful if you only had dial up.

what happens to a photo when I post it here

I've been experimenting with what happens to a photo when i post it here. I had made a large file for my daughter to print at school. it was a jpeg but i'd saved it with a resolution of 300 and kept the size at about 5 by 5. When i uploaded it here and then right click to save back on my hard drive, the fine folks here at blogspot had kept the dimensions but dripped the resolution to 72. So this is definitely not the way to share a file that you want your grandma to download and print. This is very interesting!
