I will giveit a try, though the last thing I need is another social media app sucking up my time, ha! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/just-joined-instagram-now-what#post-411501 Fri, 23 Nov 2012 12:22:50 +0000 wheres_c 411501@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm glad @sweetchic: posted this. I downloaded instagram a while ago, but never really figured it out myself either.<br /> I just tried adding a few of you (my username is wheres*****).<br /> I'm going to try and use it some more. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/just-joined-instagram-now-what#post-411466 Fri, 23 Nov 2012 11:45:59 +0000 Mrs. Pen 411466@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@mrbee: I miss your pics! I did love the one you posted of Mrs. Bee and Olive playing a couple weeks ago..</p> <p>You can take pics with your regular camera, when you're in the IG app you can upload from your photo album.</p> <p>I'm not going to post my username on here but I would be on both high wire and shopaholics followers list, you'll recognize me by my old avatar ;) and my name begins with mama. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/just-joined-instagram-now-what#post-411465 Fri, 23 Nov 2012 11:43:04 +0000 Mrs. Pickle 411465@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I use my camera app and bring the photos into Instagram usually. You can find me on highwire and shopaholic's lists of followers. :) I don't want to post it here since it has my first name in it. It starts with a T though. I love Instgram! I think you will too. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/just-joined-instagram-now-what#post-411463 Fri, 23 Nov 2012 11:42:19 +0000 mrbee 411463@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>You can use Instagram in a few different ways:</p> <p>1) Take a lot of photos of your pets or LO... then post them for your friends and family.<br /> 2) Take cool/designed pictures of interesting things, to convey the general impression of sophistication and taste.<br /> 3) Take lots of pictures of yourself<br /> 4) A combination of the above.</p> <p>I tried to use Instagram with approach #1 above, but I quickly found that all of my pictures were of Charlie drinking coffee or playing at the playground. My life is too repetitive to be interesting! Plus I have limited taste, so #2 was out... and I don't take selfies, so #3 was out. Then I ran out of storage space on my iPhone, so I had to quit.</p> <p>I might fire my IG back up though once I get more room on my iPhone! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/just-joined-instagram-now-what#post-411461 Fri, 23 Nov 2012 11:38:41 +0000 Sammyfab 411461@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Oops! I should mention that I'm samandkai. :) </p> <p>@shopaholic: I downloaded apps from the recommendations on this post: <a href="http://www.hellobee.com/2012/05/18/favorite-photo-apps/" rel="nofollow">http://www.hellobee.com/2012/05/18/favorite-photo-apps/</a> </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/just-joined-instagram-now-what#post-411442 Fri, 23 Nov 2012 11:16:52 +0000 shopaholic 411442@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm shopaholicviv.</p> <p>I just use the basic IG app to take &amp; post pics. If anyone recommends any other cool apps for splitting pics or addt'l filters I'd love to know too! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/just-joined-instagram-now-what#post-411417 Fri, 23 Nov 2012 10:50:46 +0000 Sammyfab 411417@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Instagram is the best! You can find people who are on it that are in your contact list or through FB and your email. If you go to your profile and click on the wheel/spoke thingy in the top right corner you'll find a 'find and invite friends' option. :)</p> <p>ETA: IG can be slow at taking photos so most of the time I use my camera app. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/just-joined-instagram-now-what#post-411356 Fri, 23 Nov 2012 09:55:18 +0000 DillonLion 411356@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Relliott9 is me and if you go to the list of who I follow you can find a bunch of ladies from here.</p> <p>For your second question, either one. You can take a pic with IG or filter one from your gallery that you took previously </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/just-joined-instagram-now-what#post-411354 Fri, 23 Nov 2012 09:52:13 +0000 Meridian 411354@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>So I just got a brand new cell phone yesterday and just downloaded instagram! But now I don't know what to do, haha. Any tips? How do I find people to follow and get them to follow me? What are the best filters to use? </p> <p>And when you take a pic, do you always open the instagram app and take the pic from there? Or do you use the regular camera app and then somehow instagram it. ..? Slightly confused. </p>
