Yikes!

So this is what happens when you get busy for a few days and can't come check on the blog (things have been CRAZY at work and in getting ready for Christmas). I had scheduled several posts to go up automatically since the 4th in the days I knew I would be away from the blog... and they didn't work. Rats! So sorry things have been pretty quiet around here, they weren't supposed to be. :/ I'm working on getting everything worked out so they finally post, but I expect it might take a couple days. So in the meantime, last week's posts are missing, but going forward hopefully there won't be problems. Thanks for your patience while I figure things out!

Tech Help Please!

So I need some tech help from those of you out there who use Blogger. Pretty much everything I do with my blog is self-taught so I could use your help on this one.

For those of you who blog on Blogger, I have a question about using longstanding graphics. I'm thinking of those who use graphics for the review ratings, or if you have a picture for a regular feature like In My Mailbox or Waiting on Wednesday. How do you insert the graphic into your posts?

In the past in these situations I've just copy and pasted from another post with the same graphic. But it's a little clunky since I have to have 2 or 3 tabs open to do the new post. Is there an easier way to set it up, a shortcut of some kind? Or is that pretty much it? I don't want to upload it every single time I do a new post, since it takes up room in my blog storage, but is that the way I should go?

If you have any suggestions, tips, tricks, explanations, etc. for me, it would be very much appreciated!

Thanks!
