Weekly Winners/Rant About WordPress Edition

by Veronica on March 30, 2008

in Life

Okay firstly, WordPress? I LIKED the old layout. I knew my way around the old layout and then you go and change it on me? Hell. Anyway Weekly Winners thanks to the gorgeous Lotus. (Do you read her yet? You should, she is HAWT.)

Okay, I think I’m set now. it just took me 5 mins to work out how to upload an image. Damn you WordPress *shakes fist*.

Big Smiles!

You know what sucks even harder? I can’t write the post while the damn picture uploads. *shakes fist harder*

I’m getting peeved now. (Okay peeved is a VERY VERY MILD WORD [insert expletives of choice here]) I can’t make the photos upload any faster than one every 15 mins.

See this? This is what happens when I ask Amy to smile for the camera. She thinks it is hilarious.

It has been raining here for days, which is good because we do need the rain, however the cold and grey? I can do without. The grey however serves a purpose, in that it makes the rainbows look all the brighter. Yes, on the right hand side is a second rainbow. Not very bright, but there all the same.

This is one of the kittens we decided to keep. She spends all her time annoying Seven (the puppy) and leaping in the air for moths.

Amy has been cooped inside for a few days (see above: rain) so cabin fever has been a problem. Unfortunately she thought that hiding my camera was a great fun thing to do, so I have no photos of the havoc she has been causing. It took me 20 mins to find the camera so that I could take the photos of the rainbows.

See this one though? It takes lots of concentration to try and steal the camera as I take a photo. LOTS of concentration.

I promise I will have more photos next week. Next week I will even have ADSL (yes, I know, I was supposed to have ADSL last week. They messed up). Maybe tomorrow I will even get my linky thing to work rather than having to link everything by hand. Please let me know if anything is messed up or broken.

See more Weekly Winners here!

Great pics hun!

If uploading pics like that is really bad maybe try one of those offline editing programs like Windows Live Writer. It’s totally free and you only upload things to the site once you’ve finished the post – I loved using it, only with there was a mac version!

Thanks for the info about WordPress… my husband is researching the new version even as we speak. πŸ™‚

I’ll practice my fist shaking. πŸ™‚

Love the double rainbow shot, and yay for a kitten! Amy is really adorable.

I use Wordpress, and I love it! Which version are you running? My pictures take about 2 seconds to upload, and I can write while they do – I’m running it in Firefox – maybe that’s a difference? Hope you get it straightened out soon!

What a beautiful rainbow!
As for the pics, I find it easier with WP if I load the pics onto flickr, and then paste the html code to the flickr pic from my post.

Amy has the most expressive face. She is so gosh darn gorgeous.

That rainbow is amazing. Fantastic shot.

What a lovely little kitten. It has the best markings.

Beautiful pics, as usual. πŸ™‚

My Amy’s favorite word at the moment is F**k. And she uses it in the right context. Like a guy at work who nearly knocked her over cos he couldn’t see her. He got called an Effing idiot. By my 2 yr old. I have no idea where she learns these words…..terrible. Very cute photos, so adorable

Tiffany March 31, 2008 at 4:39 pm

Love them all but love the rainbow best.

Amy’s cheeks are the best. They’re just waiting to be smothered in kisses and “raspberries”.
I often see double rainbows here too.

Sarcastic Mom April 2, 2008 at 1:56 pm

LOL Wordpress changed something? I haven’t done the latest update. Hell with them updating every 5 minutes. I boycott. Hehe.
Of course, I also use flickr, and just copy/paste the code in. πŸ™‚

I LOVE your pics – The first 2 of Amy are so great! And the rainbow? *falls over and dies*

Sarcastic Mom’s last blog post..A decidedly different post than this past Friday’s.
