The caption is meant to convey additional information, usually witty in nature. I don't believe there is any crime in adding the captions that I do, and I hope to keep my readers entertained, whether they are visually impaired or not. Thank you for your thoughts and information!Donnahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05347598432040432610noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7030532780217946336.post-37315070823986274372009-03-16T17:55:00.000-04:002009-03-16T17:55:00.000-04:00I love the way you are using these captions but I ...I love the way you are using these captions but I just thought I would inform you of what they were designed for. They are intended to be an aid for visually impaired people using computers. They often have deveices which read webpages aloud to them and when they scroll over the image, the device can read aloud this caption. That lets them know what the image is even if they struggle to see it.Coopsiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03499198362975723122noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7030532780217946336.post-39849952233835311352008-12-05T08:44:00.000-05:002008-12-05T08:44:00.000-05:00I am so glad that this little tip is helping every...I am so glad that this little tip is helping everyone!

Since many of us are doing the photo challenges, I thought that others would like to add captions too! BTW, you can move photos in your Compose tab. Just click and drag to where you want them. They don't always load in the order that I want them, so I drag them around to where they need to go.<BR/> <BR/>Now if I can just figure out how to do my own backgrounds! If someone else knows, it would be great if they had a tutorial about it!<BR/><BR/>Now go add some neat, funny captions to your blog!!!!Donnahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05347598432040432610noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7030532780217946336.post-65910178400846362672008-11-19T18:21:00.000-05:002008-11-19T18:21:00.000-05:00Hi Donna,It's me again!

I also figured out that I could move pictures using the html, took me long enough. LOL I just click on(highlight it) the html and copy the photos code and move it where I want to or erase one that way too. There might be an easier way but it works for me. But I've always liked how you have captions, now I just need to think of some creative ones!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03187046701009700323noreply@blogger.com
