Strut Your Stuff

August 21st, 2009

Ok so by now you’ve ‘heard’ us promoting the awesome flickr group…and prompting you to join. Kudos to you that already have, I know sometimes learning something new can be intimidating, but I promise this is super easy…really I had my pages up and loaded in the group in less than 5 minutes.

Ok so I may have a little head start, because I already had a flickr account and had loaded a couple of things before. But even if you don’t have a flickr account, it’s still an easy process. Double easy for my fellow mac friends (there’s an upload function right in iPhoto). Windows friends will have to upload from the website or download an application that will allow you to upload from your machine.

Let pretend we’re going to upload directly from flickr, simply login and then choose the ‘Upload Photos’ from your photostream page. If for some reason you’re not on the photostream page, just click on the ‘YOU’ tab and you’ll get to where you’re going.

Select the upload photos and video link and you’ll can choose files from your computer.  Easy enough.

Next step…join the cool kids group…aka the Kraft Girls Kitgroup.  Click on the link to the left or search for Kraft Girls and you’ll find it. (a side note: there are lots of cool groups out there…try searching for your camera type, favorite manufacturer or even types of photos). Now select the ‘Join Group’ link.  Easy Peasy. Now you can see all of the scrappy goodness the DT and other fab scrappers have put in the group this month. It’s a great way to get inspired throughout the month, not just on reveal day.  Most of the DT has added projects that haven’t appeared on the blog. You can always get to the group by selecting it from your groups tab.

Choose Add Photos link and you’ll be taken to a screen where all of your photostream show up. Just click on the photo you want to add to the group, you can do up to 6 at a time…how cool is that.  Then hit the ‘Add to group’ button.
