Charm City

Sailing in the Inner Harbor. Artscape festival in Mt. Royal. A quirky coffee shop. Old Bay. Vaccaro's delicious cannoli's in Little Italy. Cobble stone streets. Movies at the Senator. Hollins Market. Charles Village colorful homes. Penn Station. Books from the Pratt Library. The American Visionary Art Museum. Patterson Park. Baseball at Camden Yards. Crab cakes at Lexington Market. Natty Beer.

For these reasons and so much more, I love Baltimore. I have fallen in love with Charm City and my feelings are simply unexplainable. It's something between me and the city- 'My City'. I love how it maintains keeping it's past identity but also strives to create something new. But most of all I love the feeling I get when I drive into Baltimore City and how it welcomes me back. This city is my new home- my home away from home. All my memories from it are now a part of it's history forever. So, to Baltimore, 'My Lady B!'

And now I share my love for Baltimore with you...

Uploading Photos to Blogger vs. Embedding Images from Flickr

Uploaded Image

There are various advantages and disadvantages for uploading images to blogger versus embedding images from Flickr or similar photo websites. For instance, the image in this blog is an example of an uploaded photo while the image in the previous blog has an embedded picture. Below is a list of both the advantages and disadvantages of using each of these methods for placing an image into a blog.

Advantages for Uploading:
> Uploading is much quicker since the user doesn't need to go to another website to upload the image. The user can upload the image instantly.

> Blogger also permits the user to access images from all types of images including both the web and the users own computer.

Diadvantages for Uploading:
> This process does not allow for an image-editing option. This means that the pictures will look just like when they were first viewed.

> Images uploaded through Blogger can only be done one at a time. Therefore, if a user s trying to upload many images it will most likely take a lot of time to do so.

Advantages for Embedding:
> Embedding an image from Flickr or similar photo websites allow for advanced editing preferences like the size, color, clarity, and sharpness.

> This option also permits a user to upload more than one image at  a time.

> Furthermore, embedding Flickr images lets a user directly access their Flickr account from Blogger by simply clicking on the embedded image.

Disadvantages for Embedding:
> Flickr images that are embedded need to be stored on the user's computer before they are uploaded which means that a user may not upload images directly from the Web.
