I don't see any way to add a image

 I set up the secret email address so that I could post to this blog using my phone easily. Since there's no app that works for blogger on the phones this method of using email is my first choice.  In order to insert a photo I use the paperclip attachment button in the upper right. The picture does have to be on the device in order for this to work.  -- Blessed be the flexible, for they shall not be bent out of shape. Chris Guld GeeksOnTour.com

This post is to experiment with uploading large photos and see if it affects my Drive storage numbers. Right now, Drive storage reports that there is 1GB being used by Google Photos. If I upload some full-size images from my C drive, will the GP drive space used change? The following 6 photos are right at 16 megapixels - all are over 6MB in file size. I think we'll see that when I find them in Google Photos (thru the archive) they will be compressed.
