Pump up Your Points with Pics

I have been reading many posts lately and am surprised to see how many of them lack any punch. The old say "a picture says a thousand words" is so true. All of your posts should have a nice colorful photo or clipart. If you don't know how to add a photo or find photos and clipart check out one of these well written posts:

In fact, if you have a great photo of your area, your family or any graet photo you can write a post just about that photo.

Great photo of your "family".

I used to write my posts in html to get photos, links, and text formatting that I wanted. I've since found that it's so much simpler just to use the Active Rain text input and use the basic tools offered there.

Finding a picture that fits the topic is always not as fast as we wish, but when we do it does add to the impact. Thanks for reminding us

I agree! You'll rarely see one of my posts without a photo or two... or maybe a text image... but too many is just as bad as none. Like anything else, moderation is key. I always have an open subscription at istockphoto.com and also use my own.

Punch- Some are like dry toast and others like the Vegas Strip; a happy medium is always preferred, thanks for the post!

I always use photos and agree that they makes the post more attractive to readers. Anytime you use something that helps people relate you are ahead of the game.
