Adding pictures/illustrations/graphs etc

To add pictures,

1. Create the picture
2. Convert to JPG
3. Use Picasa to view and modify the picture
4. From Picasa use Hello to post the picture to Blogger using Bloggerbot
5. Edit the post to add other stuff

All the three software, viz., Picasa, Hello and of course Blogger are free and are maintained by Google. For the picture below you will note that it shows a 320 size JPG file in the post but one can click on it to see a much bigger 640 size. You can use Hello to specify these two sizes.

Equations formatted using LaTeX on this blog

This is to check if I can insert equations into my log. For example if I wanted to add the Energy-Mass equation, I can add:
<EMBED TYPE="application/x-techexplorer"
TEXDATA="$$E = m c^2$$"
HEIGHT=20 WIDTH=100%></EMBED>
which translates to:

As one can see it does do a LaTeX conversion. The only hassel is that I have to specify the HEIGHT. Otherwise it seems like an ideal way to communicate in LaTeX on the Web.

Note: You do need to download the techexplorer plugin from Integre Technical Publishing Co.

Here I go ...

Just checking if this thing works!
