I found the answer on YouTube. It's easy. Here's what you do:

(1) Go to display on iPad that shows icons.

(2) Click on the camera icon (black camera in box with the word "camera" beneath it.

(3) Click on the white camera on the right side of screen. [Your face will appear]

(4) Click on white circle to take your picture.


There are other things that can be done, but these are the BASIC instructions.

Well, it's the only iPad I have. Anyway, using it, I posted my picture on my Facebook page, and it looked okay to me. Actually, it wasn't a good picture, but its reproduction on the Facebook page was just fine with me. Now I'm going to be ready for my birthday on the 18th. I have Canon, Nikon, and Sony 35 mm cameras, but I'll be taking my birthday pictures with my iPad. It's so much easier.
