I was just going to ask that when you upload a picture if everyone would just take a minute and fill out the "key word" line. It would really be helpful in finding the perfect idea when searching the galleries.
If you decide to do it, thanks in advance. icon_biggrin.gif

I second that! If you don't put keywords, we can't pull up pictures of your cakes when searching the galleries icon_smile.gif

This is the first time I've seen this post and I'm sure there are plenty of others who feel the same way! Don't think that just because nobody responds right away that they don't agree with you or they don't care.

By the way, not that my cakes are inspiration worthy yet icon_redface.gif I do put in key words and encourage everyone else to do the same!

I agree, key words are the "key" to somebody finding your cake among thousands on the site. Just uploading it into a certain category isn't enough.

I really try to do that, but for some reason when I go to upload pics to the galleries, it usually takes me 10 tries or more....dont know why.....and even though I copy the description (so I dont have to retype it each try) sometimes I just give up filling in the keywords (somewhere between the 7th and 9th time).

When I start having cakes that I think someone might be inspired by...then I will get more diligent!

Thanks for the reminder though.....I didnt really understand the point when I first started uploading pictures.

Didn't realize the purpose of the keyword. Is there a way to go back and put it in the already uploaded pictures ?
