Bonnie, my http://www.bloggertobook.com service pulls your original blog content. Whether the photos get resized or not, it strictly your choice as we work the format.

I have been reading your blog for some time and have learned a lot from you, Brent! Just please don’t run over to my blog and ask…”Hmmm, what exactly have you learned, Bonnie?” LOL!

My question is about blog books. I have recently returned from a vacation in Europe and want make a book as a remembrance for those that were with us. I want to know if there is a service that will actually copy the blog and not minimize the photos? I have seen some books done by Blurb but the photos are so small they are less than desirable. I would like it to be bound into a book at a reasonable price. I use the Blogger formatting.

Any suggestions would be helpful.
Thanks so much, Bonnie

Just a note for readers… don’t freak out if you forget to switch to HTML mode in Blogger. You can still paste HTML into the Compose mode. If you really want to see your photo after you paste the code into the Compose mode, just click HTML and click back to Compose, easy as that.

Also, so that you only have to worry about the actual photo’s code, and not the formatting (center, left, right) code, you can still manipulate those options within blogger. Just click on the photo and use the center, left, right, text formatting buttons at the top. You can do this by clicking on the photo like I said above, or you can hilight the HTML code and click those buttons.
