Pics can be taken using print screen button and are stored in clipboard. You need to paste it then in some graphics program (Paint comes with Windows) and upload it somewhere (on image hosting server or here in TBL user gallery).
Good luck! ;)

Thanks to mr. McQwak, my newest update has 2 pics. Read about what is happening at the club and what are my plans for next season. Will Medvescak play in playoffs this season? Can we win another Continental Cup? Who will replace Dolezal? And will I change clubs?
All this and much more in next issue of my blog posts.

Good work, marecone :thup:
Regarding the pictures, I'd advice you to make them smaller. Imageshack can shrink them to 300x200 (standard size for message boards), that's enough.

Got another tin can! Read how Ukraine finally managed to get in elite company. Story that went about same time as this one will be posted soon. TIP; I got a job in AHL and did more then good.

P.S. Anyone interested in how I do it? Key is playMover tactic that can be downloaded from this site. Few posts up you will find what have I changed.
Second important thing is selection of players. I have saved simple search parameters wich I use when I want to buy someone. Nothing to revolutionary but it works as my players are always amongst the best in the league.
Third is a great Assistant and Head coach. In 90% of my games I let HC decide on set up of lines.
Frankly these results a bit unrealistic as for hockey knowledge I am just a rookie. I would also like to add that I don't use resets as the kill the game.

Hope you will keep reading my blog.

It is. I just had a read. Easy read and not all just stat lines. Now if his boys get a little more mean and use rubbish and Adam Oates as words. :-D top cheddar, I got 2 apples and a Gino. Along with other hockey base sayings like Go to hell milbury. You r dumb as a post and your mama wears combat boots

Curious as to what people would want to read about in blogs. What makes a good EHM blog?

A good story!
Blogging gamescores and a simple list of transactions is pretty dull. Give us the reasons behind building your team or make up a fun fictional story about the manager or some players.

Yes, reasons for everything is nice. Reason why you use a specific tactic, player, linematching, trade etc.

Decent start. I do not often read them all, because it is usually a bunch of boring stats. Get exciting and interesting into personalities on the team and your GM. Photos show stats. All you have to do is screen shot one once in awhile. Some guys just post wins losses stats...boring.

Spice things up with stories about prospects who party (I always did when someone widdled me off by playing poorly etc)....

Anyone remember my Gilbert Brule-Alexandre Picard stories from Columbus challenge extended way back when. If it is still posted you could take a look to see what I like. Bah...just checked..it is long gone. It was one of the earliest blogs way back in 2008 or 9. Likely lost around the time the site was changed over to this place.
