I downloaded the Beta 3 and revised some of my latest posts so they have better images. The fuzzy screenshots were bothering me too. (I didn’t do Connie’s posts though.)

Never tired of them Hummie! It’s too bad that it’s not working though.

Are you tired of reading my rambings?

So, I jumped through one hump and landed on a mound.

My photos in my post have an x in the corner of them with no photo and when I click on them, I get a Google page that says “Forbidden
Your client does not have permission to get URL /1.1 from this server.”

Frustrating…now I should have just done it the normal way.

Well, you know me, I don’t quit at anything as much as I sometimes would like to.

I opened up my images in PSE, simply resaved them, and now they are pulled in.

I am wondering if using the “Save to Web” feature and the compression did something to prevent the first set from working. It is midnight now and I cannot play with that any more.

I was excited to try it…downloaded it which took forever to install….started writing…went to insert to insert a photo….but when I select a photo from my hard drive and click the button…I get an error messages that says “please select a photo.” ….now, I’m not that technology illiterate that I don’t know how to select a file so it shows in the menu before clicking okay.

It just does not work…how frustrating to get my hopes up for nothing…I looked through the forum and the help files. The help files are not updated and indicate that it cannot be used with Blogger for photos…so if it is a setting, I have no help on it.

I guess I am back to my old ways.

Yes, that is pretty exciting. I think the photos was one of the main reasons I quit using it. The other was that of deleting posts.

I will have to give this a whirl.

Did you know that Blogger already uploads to Picassa from the online editor? You can go there to see all of your uploaded photos and delete them too. I do not think a lot of Blogger users know that.

So for them to put it on Picassa makes sense…they just made the connection that was already there, but through the Live Writer, which makes sense.
