   WP uses the term Categories.

   1. Tags can be created when you write your post. There's a box on the right hand side. Or you can go to your dashboard - manage - categories.

   2. Images don't get tagged.

   3. At least using BlogDesk, you can tag a post. I'm not sure if you can create categories within the software or not. I never looked and I'm not sitting in front of that computer right now.

   FYI you can import your categories into BlogDesk and then mark each post as you go.

   *sigh*

   Posting before eating is a bad idea in my case.

   I guess I was unclear.

   I meant I wasn't sure if you could create categories on the fly. It's not in the main window, but I haven't gone through all the menus and submenus to find out.

   But yeah. There's an option in there somewhere to import your categories. If I need a new one then I create it using dashboard-manage-categories and then reimport the categories into BlogDesk.

   re: BlogDesk
   -> File -> Manage Blogs ->
   Properties -> Categories
   (2 choices "Get from server" and "Edit manually")
   When in doubt simply upload as a draft.
   Then you can "tweak" it in your blog.
