Matt,

All you have to do is ask. Leave your e-mail on my bulletin and I'll make sure to notify you next time we have a Yanks round table.

Later,
Jordan

Thanks Matt, glad to help

You should be able to add an article photo to any article you submit. Personally I've never copied a piece over from a blog, so I don't know how the process works, but if you're just copy pasting the article over to here under the normal article writing interface, then you should be able to add a photo. If not then whoever edits the article will just add the photo for you, or you could also edit the article yourself after you copy it and add/change the photo from there.

Let me know anytime if you need guidance and I'll try to help. I am just an editing intern, not actual b/r staff, but I do have a pretty good understanding of the site.

Thanks,
Corey
