County Jail and Bog!

[kokopelle]

My lovely mate and I visited the Pickens County Museum Of Art & History a few weeks back.  The museum is housed in a building that was previously the county jail. There is a conservation site next to the building. The lower part features carnivorous plants (cool!). My mate tells me that the Venus fly trap and the pitcher plant are hard to keep alive.

The full set of pictures can be seen here on flickr!

nice photos! I visited you on Flickr!

I was wondering how you managed to put your pics so nicely arranged.

Thanks! My camera takes some really nice outdoor shots. It is a little more challenged indoors with lower light levels, but I suspect this is the bane of most cameras.

These are the steps I go through to post entries like this:

1) Upload pictures to Flickr (http://www.flickr.com/photos/greensh/sets/)
2) Use Microsoft Frontpage to build the basic table structure and insert pictures and links. Most any website construction tool could be used for this. The "small" picture size from the flickr site is used on the blog view. The picture URL is copy and pasted into Frontpage.
3) Copy and paste the resulting HTML code into Semagic (http://semagic.sourceforge.net/). There I do any additional editing. In this case I had to clean wulfwalker's embedded URL code as it only is recognized in LJ as valid HTML markup.
4) Post the results to my blog with Semagic.
