Adding Photo Gallery Link
So with the migration and some suttle differences with the two blogging applications there will be a little administrative tasks from the users side. Everyone who had a Gallery before will still have a gallery but you will need to provide a link to it on your blog page.
This can be accomplished by logging into your blog. After logging in there will be an admin link. Click on the Admn link and go to the Blogs tab. You will see your blog and some administrative function you can perform.
You are going to want to click on Links:
1. you will then need to add a link column header and then click save.
2. Next you will have a box to put in your link url you will enter it as http://www.sqljunkies.com/weblog/photos/ [your photo gallery]
3. Then click save an proceed to your blog click refresh and your link will be there. Because of caching it may not be there straight away.
Next when you make a post and you want to Include an image in your post you may edit the HTML of the post an add an Image tag.
1. The url of the image can be found by going to your Gallery and clicking on your image till you get the original image on the gallery page. Then copy that URL link and paste everything from the /Weblog/ into the IMG src attribue like so:
obviously change [ ] for a <> [img src="/WebLog/photos/[yourgallerynamehere]/images/15644/original.aspx" /]

Welll it is late now and I hope to help more later.
