I finally figured out how to create a page.

After you upload a picture, copy the URL. Go back to your page and use the add image tool. Paste the URL in the space provided. You will need to remove the from both ends of the URL and then hit submit. That is the only way I could get my pics to upload. I hope this helps and was not too confusing.

Went to my page this morning and all of my pics are gone. They were there yesterday????????? Maybe I don't have this figured out yet. LOL.

My hubby and I built the coop. We are both very handy

The plastic feeders were found at the local pet store. I think they are meant for bunnies, but they seem to work great for my 2 girls. I don't even have to fill them that often.

What you need to do is click on the pic itself. That is the secret! If you click on any of those url's, it won't work. I also figured out, that if you delete any of your uploaded pics, that happen to also be on your page, they will disappear from your page.
Maybe this will help?

To see the photos in a large size, just click on them.
I may mess around with this though, when I have more time. It took me all morning to put the page together, so I anticipate any changes I make will take some time.

Edit: and I really like the hook on the door - I need one

The lights work

There is one in the coop, one in the run, and one in the closet.

Congratulations on both your PAGE & the coop!!!

Sorry one of your chickens died- it happens. We have all been there
at one time or another....

Your pics were there when I looked.
So you canoe? Need to see those pics on the page!!!

You hit on one of my pet peeves. I started a thread:
Why Haven't You? because I often looked at the "My Page"
& even tho they created the page to start - there was nothing there.

That makes you "Bona Fide" on BYC!!!!!!

To tell you the truth, I have had many PM's asking how I did things. I am trying to help everyone the best that I can,but I am no expert. I hope I can help as many as possible. When I watched the tutorial, it went fast and everything was all on one quick video. It was hard to remember everything they showed.
Basically, what I did was go to my page and when I couldn't make something work, I went to the tutorial for answers. I was home sick with a terrible cold when I made my page, so I had lots of time to figure it out.
If anyone needs help, I am happy to try. With the way things are going, technology surpasses our ability to keep up.....specially for us older ones

Yes, I am older, but I won't tell you how much

Ha ha!
You are curious about my canoeing? I don't understand what you mean about needing to see the pics on the page. Did they not show up?

You know Nancy, the shear fact of the number of requests you gotten for "your" way of developing a page, tells me the tutorial the site has isn't made for the "regular" people. I found it confusing or just not complete. But then at my age the attention span is not quite as keen as it once was.

Also, thanks for you help. You are a tremendous help.

Thanks! I am hoping to see your page when you get it finished! I like what you have showed on your page 2 so far. I know it will take some time to sit there at the pc to get it done, but I'm sure you will be very happy when you have finished it and feel some sort of satisfaction that you were able to do it! I know I did! That's why I posted in the first place! I was sooo excited that I was able to figure it out!
