Blogger, Blogpress, Blogsy


Is anyone else having trouble posting? My troubles started yesterday. I think Google made some changes. I had been using Blogsy quite successfully for the past year or two, but all of a sudden it won't post pictures - it keeps giving me an "http error" message. It wants to send the pictures to Picasa, but Picasa has been retired by Google....

I was able to go back to Blogpress, but now have noticed that most of my pictures from posts in 2013 and 2014 have disappeared.

Have spent way too much time last night and this morning trying to figure out what has happened.

Frustrated and irritated.

I was getting a http error on blogger but as far as I can tell it hasn't affected anything. I haven't posted for a few days (my needles have been pretty slack) so I don't know if that has changed. Hopefully they get it fixed soon!

Sorry I can't offer any suggestions. I didn't know about Picasa and after checking, am so totally confused!

Blogger gave me an http/https error yesterday but was fine once I said "ignore." Don't know if it makes a difference but I use Photobucket for my image hosting.

Google was having major problems a couple of days ago, so perhaps your problems are left over from that and will resolve soon? I didn't know about Picasa; it would have been great if they'd emailed users. Pictures were supposed to be automatically moved to Google Photos, but I haven't checked. I've been toying with the idea of starting to blog again, but I'm not sure it's worth it, not to mention I've used the Picasa desktop app for editing photos; and I'm not sure what else is available. I wonder how long it will be until Blogger is no more?

Hope you get your problems solved.

That's Google for you. I still have a Picasa web album and can still add photos and make changes, but I have a gmail email account and have to be signed in to that in order to do anything with my album. I wish they would just leave things alone.

I don't use either - I just use Blogger to post thru Internet Explorer. Hope your troubles disappear. Mel

I just heard that Blogsy is now dead. Mine no longer post to blogger at all! I'm totally frustrated too! I have no idea what to do now! I so depended on using blogsy with my ipad and now nothing compares!!
