    That is interesting. I can see the box for every entry.

    You are looking at a specific entry right?

    Yes, Janine's and Grace86's blogs do not have comment boxes for me.

    ahaha...then I will have to think or whether I will alow you to comment, Virgil....haha....just kidding.

    Admin, you did a great job on here lately! The blogs are easier to understand now - I was lost trying to start one the old method. I still don't know the ropes yet but it seems to be more user-friendly. I just love the profile pages; everyone is having so much fun designing theirs and it is creating a much closer friendly community.

    Admin, where is your avatar by DaVinci? I like Sam from LOTR, but I seem to identify you with the Virtuvian Man. I guess with all the changes you needed a bit of a change yourself.

    I am adding this question. I can't seem to set my blog page for others to post. I went to the page of settings and thought I set everything but now it still does not seem to work. I am tripped up on the term for spam prevention: Akismet key.

    Ignore the akismet key wordpress box, it is both advanced and unnecessary.

    Ya... my avatar was 7 years old, I decided to change it.

    It is different, but it doesn't appear to be an upgrade, because it appears to have less functionality. It would be better to be able to see a list of blogs, as it was before. It isn't that I mind things changing, but it is unpleasant when things are inferior to how they were.

    If you go to the blogs page (from the button on top of this page), you'll find something called 'Total Blogs' (on the left) and next to it is the number of the current blogs on Litnet. If you click on that number, you'll get that list. Hope that helps

    Well, then I must be doing something else wrong because only the mods are getting to see a posting window. I will have to figure it out. Could it be because I actually posted but did not actually name my blog and write a description of it; I plan to do that tomorrow. After I do that do I need to click "post your blog"?

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

    I thank you. That is a fine place to hide such a thing.

    I did set the controls for my blog so anyone could see it but still there appears to be no window for Virgil and other members. I can see it but they can't; that is strange.
