Frustration

Am I the only one being frustrated by blogger.

For the past 2 weeks I have been trying to post pictures and can't get them to upload.

I should explain that I have been successful in getting 4 pictures in one of my posts, but I can't get anymore to go through.

I have tried different computers....no success.
I have tried creating new posts and uploading pictures first then adding text.....no success.
I have tried uploading, waiting 30 minutes hoping it will appear after the fact.....no success.
I have tried different pictures.......no success.
I have tried making them even smaller than they were.......no success.

I just don't know what else to do.

I see that Bev has posted pictures of her new grandson, Landon.

I noticed that BooMama has posted Crumpy McCryson pictures.

And even Sarah has pictures of her new nephew, Landon.

So this tells me it must not be just blogger having trouble. A couple of times when I tried creating a new post and putting in the pictures first, nothing would appear, and then when I clicked on "sign-out", the picture info would appear but not in enough time that I could click on "stop".

Does anyone have any suggestions for me to check, try, etc. to see if I can't get this fixed? Or maybe even a suggestion for a different blog site.

Thanks

Cheryl, I understand your frustration. If it's not one thing, it's always another with blogger. One thing I've been suspecting is that it's a regional thing or something.

I'm not having any problem uploading photos but my sister on the other side of the country is.

She's not having any problem leaving comments but I am.

The only thing I can think of that might possibly help is if you dump your cache. Sometimes if your cache is overloaded it can cause uploading problems.

It might help and it might not but it's worth a try.

If you don't know how to do it, just type "cleaning out cache" in your browser bar and you'll find sites that tell you how. It's easy.

Other than that, I don't know. I'm hearing lots of complaints out there from people who can't upload photos right now.

Thanks Barb. It's interesting about the regional thing. I'll check out the "cleaning out cache" too.

If the above commenter's advice doesn't work, try using "PhotoBucket". It's free and the service will give you the html code to insert in your posts.
