I just made an instagram which is going to be dedicated to my beauty hauls, and things of that nature. But honestly, as a newbie to instgram im finding it a little confusing. Like, how do i repost a photo? is that a dumb question, can you even repost a photo? Any help would be appreciated x

I screenshoot the photo, then repost. I haven't figured out how to repost the other way yet.I will be watching out for this thread.

There's nothing as simple as a repost or share button on Instagram. You need a 'regram' app to repost. That way it will also acknowledge where you are reposting it from.  I use an app called 'quick save' but there are a few you can choose from.

Welcome to the world of Instagram! I love it! What's your IG name so we can come follow you! *stalkerlife*

Something that has been a lifesaver for me is the NoCrop app. Whenever you upload photos to Instagram it will always crop your photo, whether you want it cropped or not, so this app ensures the photo you want uploaded is what gets uploaded. It also has a collage function and allsorts going on :)

Oh the no crop function sounds good Sarah. Although if I am taking a photo specifically for IG, I will use the square setting on my phone/iPad and try and work within the frame. The collage maker apps are fun. I also got really into doing the photo a day challenge for awhile.

I love instagram! I think it is my favourite form of social media. I love the ability to take a snapshot of your life and put it up. It is like a collection of all the good things :) I especially like being able to look back on my feed and see all the cool things I have done or taken pictures of... mainly it turns in to a feed of my dog though (but she is pretty cute). I love all the apps for playing around with your photos. My fav is 'A Beautiful Mess' but I think that one cost money. Other favourites are picstitch and photocollage. Also if one app doesn't do the sort of collage or frame you want, don't pay more money. Just download another free app :)
