I planned to start writing articles again, when Ipernity's future becomes secured. But now I'm not so sure what to post here on articles, and what on pictures.
I realized this blog tool just is way to limited for writing a photo journal in the way I would like to. Embedding images seem to give only two options, very tiny or very large. Even the image caption area gives more possibilities! Bowser's language correction tool does not work on blog main editor window, and I have to view text on source view all the time. And many, many reasons why this just does not work.
However, I suppose I can post here some short posts just for fun. Like getting a new funny nickname 'Erklärbär' =D
Video explains it all: https://youtu.be/_lSII9TJth8
I don't understand a word, or maybe one or two, but that is just cute!

Not a real existing german word. A construction of erklären (=to explain) + Bär (=bear)
... a kind of pun, because there is a real german word erklärbar (=explicable)

The photos should be uploaded to your page in the order desired for the article. when both are ready to upload you open a new Article and name it in the normal manner. Also add the description etc.
Go to the main section, Click souce, Copy our text and insert, then click source again.The text can be formatted size wise now or later (Bad choice) using Edit
.
Now you add the photos in there respective positions using the 'Add media'tool', you get a choice of Thumbnail or Full width, slect what you wish I always use full width.
With each photo you can press enter once then write any info needed beneath it.
When all is done select 'Save and Publish.
As for that Video, well I did not understand it either.

Then one source came up suggesting a terminology of The Explanator. A sort of similar scifi creature as The Terminator ;-)
But the most funny discovery was that there actually is a toy called Wikibear, where Wikipedia is used for human computer interaction:
youtu.be/Utj_u5wR-Rs
And then Conan O'Brien has made a great joke out of it:

I still thin I will end up using image albums for my "photo journal", because I so much like the idea of notes. Besides there on albums I can embed images on images, and on text, without hyperlinks. Sometimes I just wish to show more images but not provide a link to open them on the actual location. Not sure if this makes sense, but you will see in future, what I mean.
PowerPoint is also a good idea, but as said above, I decided to give a try with the notes that can be attached on images. On my today's album post you can seen an example on this:
