A suggestion to people who tweet about their content

November 08, 2010 -- Like a lot of people here on Gather, I use Twitter to promote my photos and content. I also use it to receive updates on other people's content here on Gather and other sites.

How to redeem an online Amazon gift card

Here is something that I learned from Gather members a while ago that I thought I would share to help out others since I've been asked about it a couple times recently.

Tutorial for embedding an image

My dear friend Barbara H. requested a tutorial for embedding an image. There are two ways to put an image in a post. One way is to click on the "add photos" another way is to use HTML code. First you need to copy the address of the image. To do this place your cursor over the top of the image and right click with your mouse...
