There are so many wonderful photos loaded by CC members and they can be in any number of categories. I use the 'Search' feature in the Galleries page and type in Keywords. This yields good results when I am searching for ideas. But when when I browse the galleries, I also come across wonderful photos that don't have any Keywords filled in. icon_sad.gif Even one or two obvious words related to these cakes would have brought them up when I needed them. Please oh please enter Keywords when you upload your photos! You want CC members to find them, yes?

Good reminder for us all! It makes finding ideas so much easier.

I had keywords and a brief description on what went into my Lightning McQueen cake originally. When I went and changed the pic to add a watermark, some things disappeared. It's not always by choice that those keywords and descriptions aren't there.

I wish I could get them back... or even have the option of editing to add them again, but I don't. icon_sad.gif

On the left side of your screen click on "My Photos". Click on the photo you wish to edita dn you will see "edit photo". You can add keywords, change description, and even upload a better quality photo without losing the # of views or favorites!

MessyBaker, that's exactly how I went in and replaced my photo with the watermarked one, but my description and the option to have one is no longer there.

Yes - that same quirk happened to one of my photos as well and I am unable to re-add the keywords or change it. But in the case of my photo, the description also disappeared. I started this thread because there appear to be many photos uploaded that do have a description, but no Keywords - so I assume this isn't a website error just that the CC member did not add keywords.

Me too..I changed a photo and tried to add more keywords and lost all the information. From my understanding (I email Heath) this is a problem they are aware of and will try to fix in the next upgrade.
