ReplyDeleteHey! Did I just get marked as spam?
ReplyDeleteWell, see if I come here again!!!!!
ReplyDeleteNo - You're not spam...
ReplyDeleteI fixed the filter thingy, Thanks.
The camera is even more impressive when the pictures are full size, but at around 11MB each I have to shrink them down or it takes for ever to upload them. And that's as JPGs. In Raw mode the files are HUGE!
ReplyDeleteAlso, I used to see a counter of how much bandwidth I had remaining for loading pictures into Blogger. I no longer see that. I wonder if they now don't have a limit?
It's still there on my blog. The window for photo uploads suddenly doesn't show the whole upload page and I have to scroll down to hit the upload button, but down there on the bottom with the button it tells you how much you've used of your limit.
ReplyDeleteIf you want to start from scratch, open another Gmail account and switch this blog onto that account... or... you can delete old images on any of your blogs and that will drop you back down on your total.
Fucking made me spam again.
ReplyDeleteWell this is really screwed up - it's now sending you to moderation and sending me emails asking what to do with your comments. When I hit "Post" it takes me to the sign in page. I sign in and then it takes me to the sign in page again.
ReplyDeleteChecking my settings again - I'm sure I set everything to not moderate!
Now it made me sign in again just to post that last comment, even though I am already signed in!
ReplyDeleteOK - You should be good now - moderation was set for posts older than 14 days which includes this one.
ReplyDeleteThe memory counter shows up if I use the insert photo under the HTML tab, but not under the Compose tab. For a while you could only load photos under the Compose tab - the choice was gone from the HTML tab. Recently I noticed it was back at the HTML tab.
ReplyDeleteI'm only at 29% so I have a ways to go.
Okay. I have stuck stolidly to using the html mode. Everything they offer for my convenience ends up taking away my individuality, making my blog look like someone else is producing it. So I just swallowed any urges for convenience and write my own code. Still, I am incapable of ORGANIZING my thoughts in ADVANCE of posting all but the simplest things and there doesn't seem to be any code or any buttons for THAT.
ReplyDeleteDang!
