i've found a way that saves me lots of time in adding photos with
google plus
prerequisite: google account and smartphone w/ camera
1. install google plus from market place or play store or whatever it is on android now - not sure if google plus runs on iphone..
2. configure google plus to upload photos instantly to private album (or public if you prefer), when on wifi (or whenever)
3. take pictures of your ebike
4. open private album on google + from computer (use a bookmark, but if you've already got it open, it will always refresh)
5. view detail image (double click on it from album), resize browser window so image size is not too big and right click to copy image url (chrome)

- googleplus_copyurl.jpg (39.77 KiB) Viewed 53468 times
6. in ES posting, click "Img" button and paste the url between the < img > tags
7. preview post to verify images work
notes:
- the photos are clearly not 'private' since the image url is visible to all, but no one can browse to them, and nothing in the url seems to reveal my identity, at least not yet!
- resizing the browser scales the image according, but also somehow changes the image url, particularly the last 'folder' in the URL path ".../
s768/20120529_210441.jpg". i can change the 's768' or whatever it is to s400 to display the image at 400 pixels wide. or to s800 to display it at 800...
