Blogger Rant

I got a new camera yesterday, a Nikon L1. It seems to be Melissa proof user friendly. It is so much like my Olympus that I didn't even need to read the directions to understand it. This time though, I got the warranty plan. That is something that I never do, but with all of my problems with the Olympus, I wasn't taking any chances this time.

It was also easy to download into my computer and I was able to save the photos in the same files I set up for my other camera. Sounds great doesn't it? It's not. I'm so upset that I feel like throwing things. Blogger will not upload my new images. After dozens of attempts, it uploaded two images. The rest of the time, the page just went blank. I'm patient by nature, but there is no way that I'm going to spend a couple of hours every time I want to post a picture on Blogger.

I switched to Photobucket. I don't really know how to use it yet, but I'm working on it. At least it accepts my photos. This post was done with Photobucket.

I'm still not happy, though. I have no control over where the photo is in relation to the text. If I have just one picture, I like to wrap the text around the image. It's easy to do that with Blogger. If there is a way to do that with Photobucket, I haven't found it. And where is the spellcheck?

I suppose I shouldn't complain because it is free, but I'm going to complain anyway because I feel like it. I want Blogger to accept photos from my new camera.
