Yes, I have done that twice now. It is still checked off; I looked at the page again.

windo so people can post comments to your blog? like a quick post box? I dont se one, but at the very end of page there is a hyperlink for post comment, that i pressed to post a message to your blog. :)

Yeah, I found that in my blog too, and it's not that obvious either. But I couldn't find it in Janine's blog.

hummm, weird...

So Admin, does the new avy look just like you? This week, with all the cool changes, you seem to be our hero!

No, I'm tall. Decidely not-hobbit.

Will someone just delete my blog? Before the upgrade I had removed some entries and now they're all back up there again and I went through and was trying to delete them again and managed to delete some, but suddenly I don't have permission to delete them anymore....

I guess I shouldn't have done a blog because I ended up putting more in it than I should have so it would be best for me if it were just deleted.

Is there any way of making the main blogs page only display one of the "Latest" entry by a blogger like it was with the old programme??? I'm only asking as i decided to re blog my story so i could sub catagories it, as the original entries wouldnt relocate due to a 10,000 character limit per entry, and all of the re entries have appeared one after another on the main page... I've probably taken over at least three pages of the newest entries because of this. (There where 26 entries done because i had to split nine chapters up into part one, two etc...):blush:
Sorry everyone!

How 'bout a 'resemblance' anyway - like just that 'face' on a tall person? :lol:

Sorry, Admin, I did not mean to suggest that you might be hobbit height!

There aren't a lot of customizations for the homepage available yet.

The blog is version 1.0.5

The forums are 3.7.2

Consider that for the degree of complexity. Every time a new feature or a fix is added they add a 1, to which column depends on the degree of the change.

I imagine when we see a 2.0.0 version of the blog software all these little annoyances will be ironed out, the good news is we WILL see it one day. With the old software we would have never gotten another update.

Nope, I've got short thin straight hair. If you wanna celebrity I've been told Billy Corgan, Chris O'Donnel, and Jim Carrey, I've also been told Clint Eastwood but I really don't see it.

Okie Dokie Samwise. Just thought i'd ask! Everyone will have to bypass my 26 blog entries then! :lol: (go to page 6 folks!)
Well i'll remember not to do that again in a hurry! Only thing is if i post another chapter in the future i will have more than one entry in a row due to the 10,000 character limit. but at least it wont be 26!!!!!!!!!!

Ok then, I will picture one of those handsome young men, next time I see your avy.

Quick question - I can't seem to get a photo to totally cover the background and can't quite figure out why. Just how big does the photo have to be to do so. I did designate 'none' so it would not tile but then it turned out small and only took up part of the top block. I have a shoreline and want to fill up the entire block - anyway of accomplishing that?

Otherwise, I just love the new format and all the choices. I was not going to join any groups, thinking I was too darn busy, but instead I ended up mysteriously joining 5! I am totally 'addicted' to this site now, but loving every minute of it.

I just tried to post an entry on my doggy bloggy and I could not post more than 4 images, including smilies! I am very disappointed in this because the purpose of my doggy bloggy is actually to post images according to the text I am writing, so really, this new rule ruins the thing. Is there a way to allow users to post more than 4 images?
I'm not sure it should be called an upgrade if it reduces the number of images one can post. :p

Edit: I am thinking that in case nothing can be done about this, I will just have to write more regularly so that I'll write shorter entries with fewer images, so there will still be a solution, it's ok. ;)
