I posted my first picture! Did I do it right? I just uploaded the picture with the little icon. I didn’t host it on a secondary site. Also, is there a word limit to the fan page?
🎉 You did it right! Dumb and Dumber are right there.
You can get around the 200-character limit in a fan wall post by writing whatever you want in another place (Word, a Notes app, etc.) and then copying and pasting using the mouse and not a keyboard shortcut. So, in Chrome, you’d go to Edit and then Paste. Once you do that, don’t do another keystroke in the comment window – not even a delete or a space – or it will cut everything back to 200 characters.
There’s a much longer character limit in the comments on a fan wall – 1,000 words or something. Also, you can edit the text of a fan wall post but doing so will make any images disappear. It’s better to delete the post and do it over.
Wow. Thanks. I think I will do baby steps first. This is a bit intimidating. Is it ok to upload with the little button? Or, is it better to use giphy to host the image?
You do you. There’s no reason to do anything you don’t want to. One day, you may find you want to alternate words and images, and to do that, you can no longer use the “little button,” but @lordcobol gets along juuuust fine 😉
