Yes, I am a relative newbie when it comes to writing on Medium. I love to write articles however I am still struggling with some of the basics. One is to use a good title for my articles. I don't want to be accused of using clickbait but I also want to encourage people to click on the article. In order to do that I need to come up with engaging titles. Something that will cause people’s curiosity to be peaked and want to read the article.

The other problem I have been struggling with is finding my photos on my Macbook pro to import to my Medium articles. When I click on the + symbol and Medium gives me the import window to find my photos I have a hard time finding them. When I go into the Photos app itself I can see the images I want to use. I just cannot seem to find the same photos from the finder window in Medium. Make sense? So, yes Google is my friend. I have spent some quality time doing Google searches to figure this out.

I also have to make sure and resize my photos so they don't take up a ginormous amount of the screen and scare people. I managed to crop the above photo and I believe it is a good size for this article. Tell me if I am wrong here.

The other issue is copyright infringement. I do not want to get my pants sued off of me because I inadvertently share a photo that belongs to someone else and is not in the public…
