Kate (kaitlins16) This is how I post photos:

1. Copy and paste the image html (from "some html is ok" next to "add book/author."

2. Delete the example link inside the quotation marks that are a part of the html.
< img src="http://www.goodreads.com/image..." width="40" height="100" alt="description" /> --> < img src="" width="40" height="100" alt="description" />
*I added spacing at the beginning and the end so the html would show up as it is.

3. Copy and paste the URL of the photo I want to post inside those quotation marks.

4. Adjust the height and width.

5. Click "post."

Elizabeth | 2466 comments ok does this work with pics I have on my computer too


message 153: by Kate (new)

Kate (kaitlins16) No. There has to be a URL. What I did for the find the cover challenge is i created a photobucket account. I can upload the pictures on there, then use their urls in my posts.

message 155: by Kate (new)

Kate (kaitlins16) I started doing that for most of my books this year.

Chelsea (theycallmebookworm) | 1955 comments IDK. I think that !YA Heroines! Has to be bigger before we do reviewing and stuff like that.

Chelsea (theycallmebookworm) | 1955 comments I was looking through the members that we have and it seems that at least half of our members have not even made a single comment! I think that we should send a message out to our group and try to urge some of the members to at least introduce themselves and perhaps join in the discussion! That could maybe improve the member participation?

Chelsea (theycallmebookworm) | 1955 comments :)


message 159: by Kate (new)

Kate (kaitlins16) Maybe we could have a different main challenge (like the Find the Cover Challenge is now) where the winner gets to choose the next month's BOTM.


message 160: by Chelsea (new)

Chelsea (theycallmebookworm) | 1955 comments Yea I think that more of these would be really good!


message 161: by Kate (new)

Kate (kaitlins16) At the moment, these are the books I should be getting from Libboo this week:

My Only by N.K. Smith Stained (Zombie I Am) by Mike Mauthor Willow (Blood Vine, #1) by Amy Richie

Those are the ones that I have over 20 buzz hits for.


message 162: by Chelsea (new)

Chelsea (theycallmebookworm) | 1955 comments I was first for a couple books but it seems that you don't always get a freebie?


message 163: by Kate (new)

Kate (kaitlins16) I guess not.


message 164: by Kate (new)

Kate (kaitlins16) I've got six freebies this week.


message 165: by Chelsea (new)

Chelsea (theycallmebookworm) | 1955 comments Woa. LOL. Libboo hates me hahaha.

message 169: by Chelsea (new)

Chelsea (theycallmebookworm) | 1955 comments ohhh yep :) they deserve it.


message 170: by Elizabeth (new)

Elizabeth | 2466 comments Ok Lisa Morgan just messaged me to let me know she's having a big giveaway at https://www.facebook.com/pages/Lisa-C... I have no clue where to put it but I saw a 100$ gift certificate for amazon which is really good so if someone wants to put the link where the members could find it that would be great she's an awesome person and likes to give back


message 171: by Chelsea (new)

Chelsea (theycallmebookworm) | 1955 comments Uhhh you could put make a discussion and then post the link in it and then stick it in the new folder. if you have any questions just ask away. :)


message 172: by Chelsea (last edited May 01, 2013 10:07PM) (new)

Chelsea (theycallmebookworm) | 1955 comments So at the start of every month I start to change the BOTMs and create the new discussions, so could you guys also help if you have the time? Could you do one for one of the BOTMs preferably if you have read it. Thanks :)

Chelsea (theycallmebookworm) | 1955 comments I was thinking should we give some books away? I have freebies on Libboo and I don't want to waste them so yea.... :) We are aproaching 333 members currently at 323, could do something for that.

I know I posted than went to it and it said it was broken so I have messaged lisa to find out what is going on but she has a lot going on right now her dads house burnt down so I don't know when I will hear from her


message 176: by Kate (new)

Kate (kaitlins16) Does anybody have any freebies left?


message 177: by Kate (new)

Kate (kaitlins16) That's good. I would like to give a book to each of the top six in the Find the Cover Challenge.


message 178: by Elizabeth (new)

Elizabeth | 2466 comments so I just saw something on another group and it gave me an idea I know we did a poll on roll play but what if we did something a little different we pick a series that is complete and we continue it different people would take different characters and we would do out own book sort of what does everyone think


message 179: by Elizabeth (new)

Elizabeth | 2466 comments how did that poll go I can't remember


message 180: by Elizabeth (new)

Elizabeth | 2466 comments I just read one on a lux group and it was really good there was pretty much only two people doing it but every time they stopped the group cheered them on it was really good not sure what series we would do maybe we could let the members vote on which book we could do but it would have to be a series that is complete


message 181: by Elizabeth (new)

Elizabeth | 2466 comments so pretty much nobody was against it so it may work even if we keep it going there are a couple of people on during my day that I go back and forth with that may be up for it I can ask them


message 182: by Elizabeth (new)

Elizabeth | 2466 comments I will prob do it when I get back I'm leaving with my husband to go on the road next week so I won't be on as much next week and I don't want to start something and not be here to keep in going


message 183: by Elizabeth (new)

Elizabeth | 2466 comments it sounds like fun I'll chat with some members and see what they think about it too


message 184: by Elizabeth (new)

Elizabeth | 2466 comments oh my I will try to be here I get internet when we stop so I may be able to be on a little I hate leaving Kaitlin by herself


message 185: by Elizabeth (new)

Elizabeth | 2466 comments I think she just went back too I'm not sure


message 186: by Elizabeth (new)

Elizabeth | 2466 comments I am going to see if I can put goodreads on my phone so I can keep up a little I have an IPhone so I should be able to do that and I will be sitting in the truck all day so it shouldn't be a problem


message 187: by Chelsea (new)

Chelsea (theycallmebookworm) | 1955 comments I have 7 copies of various e-books.


message 188: by Chelsea (new)

Chelsea (theycallmebookworm) | 1955 comments And about roleplay I guess we'd have to do something quite well-known like Harry Potter or Percy Jackson. Or we could have a theme like a paranormal school. Or assassins etc.


message 189: by Kate (new)

Kate (kaitlins16) I'm actually on a four day weekend right now.

I guess next week will be a pretty slow week. I have two AP tests within the next two weeks, so I'll be doing a lot of studying and homework. I then have a big research essay I have to turn in at the end of the month. Plus, there's a few events going on throughout the month. I won't truly be unbusy until the last day of school


message 190: by Chelsea (new)

Chelsea (theycallmebookworm) | 1955 comments Jenny and I are not even in the middle of our school year yet. Today is the last day of our holidays :(.


message 191: by Elizabeth (new)

Elizabeth | 2466 comments our school year ends at the end of this month so I will be a little busy with all the kids home and the gardens lol


message 192: by Kate (new)

Kate (kaitlins16) Chelsea, which books do you have?


message 193: by Elizabeth (new)

Elizabeth | 2466 comments yep our year ends on the 24th I think and then they go back in Aug


message 194: by Kate (new)

Kate (kaitlins16) I believe that's because we're opposites. It's nearing summer time in the U.S.


message 195: by Chelsea (last edited May 02, 2013 07:39PM) (new)

Chelsea (theycallmebookworm) | 1955 comments November you wish! but we have 6 weeks holidays in summer.

message 198: by Chelsea (new)

Chelsea (theycallmebookworm) | 1955 comments That sounds so nice <3


message 199: by Chelsea (new)

Chelsea (theycallmebookworm) | 1955 comments What should we do with the e-books? Any ideas?


message 200: by Elizabeth (new)

Elizabeth | 2466 comments I think Kaitlin needs some for the cover challenge I'v been giving away books randomly to try and get people to participate but it didn't work that well hopefully I will have more next week to give away
