But yes, I do do this kind of thing and like you find it very useful, but I put everything on Scrivener, so that I can turn off the internet connection when I'm writing. Also in relation to what Sue and Ann said, I sometimes find it helpful to have a clearer image in my head so that I don't put masses of details down when I'm writing.

The original image can be found on several sites. To do this, go to Google images, click the little camera icon in the search box, and either add the url of the image, or upload a copy of it. Google then finds all similar on the web. A helpful way to track origins of images for permission to use/alter them. :)<br />Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7780182174577095197.post-48022656846703497182013-05-19T13:01:44.907+01:002013-05-19T13:01:44.907+01:00Very good idea for creating a board of all the ref...Very good idea for creating a board of all the ref material.

Otherwise I use the same methods but without recourse to technology. I use a large pinboard and the back of my office door and cover them with cut-out pictures, postcards, maps, etc. I love doing this, but it has to be paper! Computers are useful but they drive me mad and are strictly for work.

I don't when I'm reading, either - one or two details are good, but I don't normally want a detailed picture.Sue Purkisshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09084528571944803477noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7780182174577095197.post-69629588257923147192013-05-19T09:09:16.063+01:002013-05-19T09:09:16.063+01:00Yes and no!

But I think that's because most of the images I needed for my current project came from printed sources and it seemed silly to scan them in just to add to Pinterest when a glue stick was easier. <br /><br />I'm pleased it works for you - and I can see I might well make it work with another project. In fact, I might go and make a micro one now for a short story as currently I'be got all the pictures for that in a Word document...Stroppy Authorhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16560035800075465845noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7780182174577095197.post-45871473118609156162013-05-19T08:35:38.662+01:002013-05-19T08:35:38.662+01:00Clever idea!Clever idea!Tabathahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14367572663591077922noreply@blogger.com
