Publisher's Description: |
Writer makes it easy to share your photos and videos on almost any blog service—Windows Live, Wordpress, Blogger, LiveJournal, TypePad, and many more.
Sharing photos and video
Here are some of the ways that Writer makes sharing photos and video on your blog even easier than before:
Crop, tilt and new photo treatments
Starting with the basics, Writer now has native editing features for photos - like crop and tilt - in addition to improved border treatments. The alignment commands in the toolbar now work with images so it’s easy to select multiple photos and, for example, center-align them.
To the right is an example of photo that is titled, right-aligned, and uses the “Instant photo” border (HINT: click the photo to see what happens).
Photo albums
It’s also much easier to insert multiple photos at once as either individual thumbnails or a Windows Live photo album.
Inserting a Windows Live photo album offers you several different album styles to display inside your post. When you publish your blog post, Writer will automatically upload a photo album to Windows Live and link the album in your post to the album on Windows Live. Here’s an example of photo album using the “Scatter” style:
View Full Album
Video
Now you can insert a video from your computer and have it automatically published to either YouTube or Soapbox when you publish your blog. Just like before, Writer will automatically embed an in-line video in your post and publish your video when you publish the post to your blog.
New plug-ins
Also, for those of you who might have missed the release candidate last month, there are new Writer plug-ins available on Windows Live Gallery that you might like:
FLICKR UPLOAD (Download)
Uploads an image to your Flickr account and inserts an inline picture into your post.
DIGG THIS (Download)
Automatically adds a DiggThis badge to your blog post after you publish it from Writer.
TWITTER NOTIFY (Download)
Automatically generates a tiny URL and sends a Tweet about your blog post after you publish it from Writer.
