Of course it wouldn't be simple
Apparently with our internet move have come some hitches. Our pictures don't seem to be loading properly, and for some reason, you can't access the archives either (even though they're right...there...?!?!?!?!?!?!).
I was using the program hello to post my pictures, which is nice because it works seamlessly with Picasa and also enables people to view larger blowups of the pictures on the blog. But it appears this is not working when the blog isn't hosted at the blogspot address. The most straightforward, guaranteed-to-work solution is to replace all pictures with universally accessible URLs from, say, shutterfly. I'll be trying to do this today, because why on earth would you visit my blog if it had no pictures? But I'd really prefer to keep my situation with hello because it's what I know and love. Suggestions?
Let's not even start on the archive situation. I have no idea how to fix that. Does anyone else blog with Blogger and have any advice to offer?
**update: Archives work now. That was pretty simple. As for the pictures, it looks like I have to wade back through them and turn them all into something not associated with hello or blogger. As Jacob would say, "PFLLFLBBBBLT". Thank you for your patience.
**update 2: Because I'm slow, I just figured out I can blog my pictures from Flickr. I tried this out with the latest post (above). I know some folks back home like to print out the pix from the blog; if you click on the pictures, it will take you to them on Flickr and you can print them out really, really huge.

I don't know anything about Hello. I use Shutterfly to store all of my photos and then I just right-click/properties/copy and paste the address to post pics on my blog with the
img src tag.
As the archive situation, I can actually help with that since I still publish through blogger. I'll email you.
