  What is the best/quickest way to upload multiple photos to a post? I click on the “add an image” button and then “select files” (it then does it’s “crunching”) and then “insert into post”. I am uploading many photos in each post and this takes a long time. Is there a better way?

  Make sure to resize and edit your images before uploading to maximize your storage space as well as retain image quality.

  Lifechanging! Don’t mean to overstate, but I’ve been (photo)blogging for 3 years and knew how to do the gallery, but didn’t know until I read in the link above I could change the thumbnail size. I’m thrilled now because I can upload the gallery much quicker but still make the photos big. THANKS
