Trying to fix my picture problem


Sorry for the strange post, but I'm only posting this to try to fix my picture problem. My picture problem is that I look bad in pictures. But the problem I'm trying to fix with blogger (until they offer plastic surgery) is that it won't let me post pictures to my blogs. What is even stranger is that it allows me to post pictures about 1 out of every 15 times I try without any noticable pattern. I have asked for help and none of the suggested "fixes" work. So I'm striking out on my own. If you have advice, please share.

So, if this new attempt works, you should see a picture of what two young boys look like after a 3 mile hike which is up hill all the way.

My family and I have placed bets on the next time you will post pictures on your blog...What? Did I say that?
What are the odds...oh never mind.

That picture is a classic! Makes me want to say, "Ve have ways of making you hike with the family!"

Your boys are cuties even if they look totally exhausted.

Since you asked for advice (and I'm just wandering over here from Greg's blog, I don't know you except for your comments there) . . . (although I've met some other good friends that way, like Randy Wray and Brad Palmore and I see your other linked names a lot) . . . here's mine. Give Randy and Brad of Theobloggers a chance to build you a great looking and easy posting and picturing blog. They are very inexpensive and really, really helpful. I've been really happy with my new blog of two weeks using WordPress software they put me on to and with lots of help from them.

Plus, if I recommend new business to them I get a one month rebate on my own huge costs of $3 bucks, which is a month's cost and the best bargain you'll find around anywhere these days!!

Either way, when it comes to posting pictures, I asked for picture advice myself on my Blogger blog because I was having the same trouble you are and had some blogging friends put me onto Photo Bucket (as in dot com). So check it out. There you can upload your photos, get a URL for them and paste it into your blog post while working on it. Try it till, or if, you get with Randy and Brad. That's my first recommendation.

Cheers & Blessings to you all! Dee Andrews

P. S. I love the pictures of the boys, but you made them walk 3 miles uphill?! Poor little tykes . . ..

Peggy, I think I may have the problem mostly figured out, but we'll see. Good luck.

cwin, thanks for saying so. They take after their mother.

Dee, welcome and thanks for commenting. I think I've seen your comments around at other blogs we both frequent. Glad you stopped by. Good advice all around I'm sure. I checked out Theobloggers and decided it was probably a far superior service. The only real drawbacks I saw was that I have no idea what an "oblogger" is and you have to pay whereas blogger is free. However, my frustration with blogger is leading me more and more toward reconsidering. Plus Randy is a pal so hooking him up with extra breakfast taco money wouldn't be all that bad.

Thanks for the tips.

Update on Dad

Quick post today. My Dad went to see his oncologist today after his latest CT scan. Because things looked good before, he has not had a scan in 3 months which seemed like a long time to be honest. Well, it is all good news. The doctor reports that there are no new spots or lesions and that the existing tumors are shrinking. My Dad will not have to increase his dosage of the drug he is taking which would bring with it new and unwelcomed side effects, so this was the best possible news. He will have another ct in 3 months. Over all, he continues to deal with some side effects from taking the drug, but they are relatively minor and in general, my Dad is doing quite well. Thank you to all who have been keeping him in your prayers. I know it has made a difference. God is good all the time.

Please Pray With Me.

Hello out there in blog land. I am sad to have to report today that we got some bad news regarding my father this week. If you read this blog or know my family, then you know that my Dad has been battling a rare form of aggressive cancer for several years. The first surgery removed a football sized tumor from his abdomen. In a matter of months the cancer returned, this time primarily in his liver. More surgery this past May killed the tumor in his liver. In early August of this year he had a CT which showed no new tumors or growth. The surgery was a success, he had finally recovered and then got a clean bill of health. It was a good month in that regard. Unfortunately, he began feeling discomfort in his liver a couple weeks ago. He went in for a CT this past Friday and then discovered this week what we had feared, but had not allowed ourselves to believe. The cancer had returned and was again in the form of tumors in the liver. In a month’s time one of the two new tumors was

I Left My Heart.....in San Diego

Out of nowhere, I am going to San Diego this week. Every year my oldest and bestest friend (not including the artist formerly known as StumpTown's wife, of course) meet in San Francisco to see a couple Giants games. This year we were having trouble getting something scheduled and then out of nowhere he has some extra travel budget he has to spend or lose (he visits colleges as part of his job as a college counselor at a super posh prep school in LA), and needs to visit some of the schools in San Diego and wouldn't you know it, the Giants just happen to be in town this weekend. So, a quick frequent flyer free ticket later and I'm hitting the road, or air, or whatever. I will fly out tomorrow and come back Sunday. We should get to see a couple games and I'll be able to catch up with some other friends from college along the way. Should be great. So, I may not be able to post anything new here the rest of the week, though I am taking a laptop with me and have high ho
