I've tried googling, and I'm getting complicated answers, so I'm hoping I can get some simple help. We just got a Chromebook-we use our computer for very basic web browsing, word processing, and photo storage/editing. I just hooked up my phone to google +, so all of my phone photos are on there now. Right now, my camera is importing through the wire and those files are also going into google +.

So here's my question: If I want to share pics on facebook, is there a simple way to do it? It brings me to google drive as an option to upload, but I can't find any clear answer on how to move pics from google + to google drive.

I also like to print and make books through Snapfish, so I'm assuming I'll have the same problem there. Any ideas?

Also, if I can't perform these basic things through google drive, is there a way to upload the photos onto the chromebook to store them like a normal computer would rather than putting them into google +?

I apologize ahead of time in case these are really dumb questions. Technology is not my thing, and it's making me tired today! :confused3
 
This is one big reason why I decided against a Chromebook and a reason why they are so cheap. It's very limited as to what you can do besides surf the web and email. I would suggest if you have a USB port to buy flash memory, transfer stuff to that and put it on a regular computer to complete your tasks.

Yeah, that's what I'm going to end up doing. We thought we might be able to get by at home with just this, but it may not work out because of photos. I'm kinda tired of buying computers to use as photo albums, ha! Though Snapfish may actually let me upload from a flash drive, I'll have to check.

Thanks Laura! That's actually for google images, not my photos, but still good to know :)
