So far, the beta version of Blogger doesn't look that much different so it's easy to create a page without looking at the tutorial. I do notice that some o
f the more advanced features of the old interface are now easier to access like adding a photograph! Colorado National Monument is one of the little known gems of the national park system. It's located near the border of Colorado and Utah. The locals call it the "little Grand Canyon of the Rockies" and in the photos I've uploaded, you can see why. Each of these images were shot with a Canon A70 3.2 mega pixel camera, hand held using either the portrait or landscape options on the dial. The image below utilized the wide-angle "add-on" lens element which is basically a piece of glass bayonet mounted over the existing and non-interchangeable, normal-range zoom lens. A similar "add-on" lens element can convert the existing normal lens into a telephoto: However, be careful when zooming because vignetting may occur if you try to go too wide with the tele attachment. It's still not possible to create paragraph indents using the inter
face and the beta version doesn't allow me to insert special "spacer" HTML code as a substitute.
CHALLENGE: If you have not tried placing photos into a blog, try it. The beta version of Blogger makes it much easier to include multiple photos in the same page element with different alignments (left, right or center) -- just as I have done with this example. The upload interface allows you to choose between three basic photo sizes but you can re-size an image once it's on your blog.
