Yesterday, in Four Good Ways to Use Media In Your Classroom Blog I mentioned embedding ThingLink images into your posts. Tara Weegar just asked me on Twitter how to do this and I’m sure there are others wondering about the same thing. Since it’s kind of hard to describe in 140 characters I’ve put together some screenshots of the process. (click the screenshots to view them full size)
Step 1: After signing into your ThingLink account and uploading a picture, hover over the corner of the image and click on “share image.”
Step 2: Copy the embed code and paste it into your blog post.
Step 3: If you want visitors to your blog to add pinmarks to the image open the “edit” menu on the right side of the screen.
Step 4: Choose the permissions for your image.
