Q. Confess your blogger sins! Is there anything as a newbie blogger that you've done, that as you gained more experience you were like -- oops?
A. When Ed and I started this blog, I never cited photos/gifs I took from the internet. Bad Emily. Bad, bad Emily. I know that I've made a bunch of minor mistakes, but nothing really pops into my mind right now...
What "oops" moments have you had?
I made several booboos myself! Read up on them in my FF Well at least you learned now, that's the good thing! :)

I dished out on my booboos at My Book Musings :)

That seems to be a really common newbie mistake so don't feel bad. I never bothered with graphics, so I avoided it for the most part, but it was more from me being lazy and avoiding looking for photos than me actually knowing not to do it.

Gifs are so hard to credit because by the time you come across them, they've been used all over and the original source is lost. I do try to give credit where it is due. For the newbie blogger it's an easy mistake.

^ I have to agree. By the time I see a gif, there's no credit to be had. Perhaps just acknowledge the original bit e.g. the name of the show it came from?
