I think I may have spoken too highly of my new blog-friend (my internet boyfriend). The first three posts on my new blog went off without a hitch, but yesterday and today I have gone mad trying to figure out why some pictures fly through the upload process, while others just load...and load...and load...and nothing. I don't even get an error code or a "sorry." It's totally random. All the photos are from iPhoto, all are in jpg format, yet less than 50% of my pics are loading to the blog. A few times, a picture will load, then I will try to load THE SAME PICTURE again and it will get lost in upload-land forever.
I'm not as much of a ding-a-ling in the computer department as I may seem. I've changed the picture size, switched browsers, read tutorials, done internet searches, all to no avail. I sent a message to TypePad support with no response yet. So I'm asking for your help! I know a few of you have TypePad blogs. Any suggestions?? I am so frustrated. The randomness of the uploading is what has me stumped...
Any advice would be appreciated! I promise to post more pictures soon, but I am stubborn. I want to post the ones I WANT TO POST, not just whichever ones "make it through".
By the way, Steve is home and his trip was awesome!! I can't wait to share some pics/details. We are happy to have him home.
I actually don't know a thing about macs, but I do love your new blog. I hope you can get things figured out and that we can hang out sometime soon.

Oh that stinks, Mindy. I wish I could do more to help. I do have a husband that may know a thing or two so I'll send him your way.
Sorry we haven't been in touch... we came home from Ohio with nasty colds, first Mike, then me a day and a half later, and now Kate has it. Not something I want to spread around. We DO want to hear about Steve's trip and see the new addition in the furry flesh, so we'll make a house call when we're all feeling a bit better.
Love you and yours!

So, I found your blog through Emily's and your family is SO CUTE! As far as your blog problem..are you trying to upload the full size file? You might need to reduce the file size (which I don't know how to to on a Mac, unless you have photoshop). That should definitely help! Let me know if that doesn't work!
