Blog Upgrade

[sprinks]

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.

Yeah that was annoying me. I put smilies in everywhere when I type! Now I have to watch what I say, because I can't follow it up with a "" to show that I'm kidding all the time. And I can't have as many ""s

Yeah I like putting smilies in my blogs too

And in order to comment on any blog, the blogger must activate the option that allows everyone to comment (that's in case you're not on his/her contact list. There's another option for those on the contact list, but I think it's automatically activated). I think some people didn't check this option yet. I kinda stumbled over it myself, cuz I thought that everyone can comment on my blog like before, but then I discovered that option.

The default for comments should be, everyone. I'll doublecheck though.

And I'll increase the smile thing.

Its only four images, which includes Img's and Smilies!

Hi Niamh, Hope you are doing well today. I am reading this part about the images starting with Sweets America and I was wondering, is that only four images in 'each' posting in one's blog? I am new to this blog business anyway; I still need to go in and name mine and post a brief description.

Also, can we still post photos and emoticons in the thread posts, without limitation?

Also, I still can't quite figure out how to make the background on my profile page totally fill the page without tiling it - it that possible?

[Niamh]

it is just four images including smilies in each blog entry at present. I'd advise any members who want to set up new sub catagories, to be careful with what they are transfering as one of two things i've discovered so far may arise;
A) the entry will have more than four Images and smiles which you will then be asked to delete to bring down to minimum of four
and
B) your entry will be over 10,000 characters long and you will be asked to delete some of it. (hence why i ended up with 26 entries in one day!)
If i discover anymore limitations, i post them here.

you can still post more than enough imgs and smilies in regular threads.
I'll look into the backround profile thing for you Janine and let you know.

OK, maybe a silly question, but please ... please: Can someone tell me how to list the titles of my blog entries such that I see just the titles (like I used to be able to?), in order to quickly find something I wish to refer to, etc.?

I find that I have to spend a lot of time scrolling through partial entries -- pages and pages of 'em ... to get my end result. The 'old way' (sorry Chris, we keep ragging about the new software) did allow a convenient title list.

I am not complaining -- just asking ..

[Niamh]

If you have them catagorised, and you know which catagory they are in, use that method. Only thing i've discovered so far and i'm trying to find out different things incase anyone is asking for info. its one big learning game for everyone. (mods included! )

[Admin]

maybe searching?

Thanks Niamh and Chris. I suppose once we are used to the new way of doing things, they'll become second nature. But anyhow, I just wondered if there were things that I was missing.... I get like that, ya know.
