Combining text and photos can be tricky if you need to keep them together, like with a picture and a caption, for example. Sometimes they get separated when you're publishing in different formats. I found the free Smashwords publishing guide very helpful. It's on their website.

They are definitely the bad boys (along with the crows) in our garden – noisy, aggressive and obnoxious. I've thrown rocks at them and they just yell at me more. I have to admit they are gorgeous, though. I don't think I've seen the regular jays. They sound like much better inhabitants. But those Stellars are amazing to look at! <br /><br />xoGeorgiannahttp://georgiannalane.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3325293669611755670.post-3941001593992537742012-11-02T06:41:02.302-07:002012-11-02T06:41:02.302-07:00As always, delightful and cute piccies!
