Upgrading to Beta Blogging . NO FUN

Well am I ever frustrated. I somehow upgraded to this new super Beta Blogger, only to experience being unable to upload
any photo's. I found some photo's of stuff I wanted to publish here on my blog. I have gone through the steps at least
10 times. Each time everything seems fine until I hit upload. The blog's upload icon keeps spinning and spinning, never
completing and republishing. I kid you not, I have endured waiting 30 minutes plus, on more than one occassion.
How maddening is this???
The only good thing, I think is that I was successful in changing the background of my blog from beige to black.
I prefer how this looks, which is rather curious as black is one of my least favorite colors. Then again, where did beige
fit in the picture? I used the former template/formate for the green that was in it mostly.
Now I will see if I am successful in publishing this new post.
Enjoy this precious day.

So you did it ! you went for it , took the plunge to BETA BLOGGER...I am holding back. Too many people crying at this point ..... Plus Blogger has never been too Mac Friendly - so maybe they are working that kink out still with Beta ... hopefully they get you straightened out so you can have some fun and upload pix ! Waiting that long stinks ! and there is no one to complain to really since it is FREE ! you get what you pay for as I heard it put on one blog....sigh.

On an UPnote ! the black looks great. So many blogs have a background that makes the text too hard to read but this looks great ! It takes a little longer to download I notice when you have a ground but this was not too bad.

Strange thing too on your sidebar...I only see blog archives...If I get in to your template I will try to find out where all of the other stuff is...you will have to tell me later if you want more links or a bookshelf or what have you.

Well Myra....today is the 17th...The Day is almost here ! I am sending lots of good vibes - believe it!

I am so glad to hear about your meeting and relationship with Arlene. This sounds so great. One of these days when I get my email working again !!! we will have to catch up on the details of that .... I MISS THE DETAILS ! Thank goodness you are bloggin so I can keep up with you in some form !

well....i Know there is an invention called The Phone...I am just not especially sure on how to USE it I guess.
Love, S
