What's Your Secret?


After bloggy broke the other day, some dogs wrote to tell me it's not uncommon for it to happen and that bloggy can be fickle. Well, I am wondering if some of you have secrets to tell about how to make bloggy behave better. I have had bloggy for less than a month, so any secrets you can tell would be woofaful to know. Here are 2 of my secrets:

1. Do not use Internet Explorer. I have noticed that when I am creating or editing a post, the preview does not format the page correctly, so I use Firefox. IE misbehaves real bad when I load my images, but maybe it is the version I am using (version 6?)

2. Before I even write my post, I am now loading up my images first thing, then I write in my text. Because images automatically are loaded to the top, I will load the images backwards, as in the first image I load will actually be the one that I want to appear at the bottom of the page. The last image I load will be the one that I want to appear at the top of the page.

What best kept secrets do you have? Please help little ole me so my walnut-sized brain doesn't spin anymore.

Hi Hana,
Have you done a windows update on your IE to check if there is any patches?

Hana,
Sorry your blog is being mean to you. Normally I push my girl away from the computer so I can play on the internet, but when it doesn't work right, I make my girl help me. She's very smart.

That's pretty much it. Sometimes the photos refuse to load, then my mom uses Flicker and just posts them to the blog using Flickr.

Hmm,I haven't had that problem with the preview feature. Wierd.

Sometimes it just happens. Oh well.

I usually use Firefox for all my internet stuff unless there is a good reason not to (there rarely is). Firefox is just so much better.

Your blogs are nice.

P.S. Found your site from Isabella the Poodle's site.

Hi Hana
If you have only been blogging for a month you are better than me, man! We only just started with pix after Picasa drove Mum mad (we use Photoshop and Flickr now). And we are big on Firefox too, now it has stopped crashing.
