I am working on a blog including pictures of the new trailer but I needed to get this out in the open first. I am getting comments from people who remain anonymous who are saying pictures are not downloading on their computer, my text is running off the page, I don't have the right format and need to work on it etc etc etc........
First, I want to say that I do NOT have anonymous comments blocked on the blog set up, I know this because I just checked. So I do not know why they do not appear unless there is some way you as the writer are keeping them off. I am sorry that we cannot see them so other bloggers can comment to your questions. I have not had anyone complain that pictures don't download, or that my text is running off the page and I have checked with people who use Internet Explorer and they are not having any problems. I just wanted to get this out in the open as I had another anonymous comment today that said he was having problems with the pictures downloading. I am sorry that you are having problems and I have no way to contact you because all I get is a website advertising something. If you are having real issues I hate it and I am sorry. Does anyone else have this problem and if so how do I address it. Barbara, from Me and My Dog gave me some good advice but I keep getting them, and this person today was very nice had nothing negative to say, so I feel bad that I cannot reach out and let them know what to do. Others are not so nice. Again help.....other bloggers!!!
Thank you to any of you who can help me with this.
Update....we have come to understand that when anonymous comments have a web address below then they are SPAM. I guess some of them slipped through. I will just delete them from now on.
I'm not having any trouble reading your blog at all. The narrative does not run out over the side column. Perhaps the anonymous commenters have their screen set up in a way that causes the problem for them. My only comment would be that it would be nice if your archive was at the top of the right column instead of the last thing. If you don't scroll down past everything else you don't see it and might miss going back to another post--just my preference though.
ReplyDeleteWhew! I am glad you are not having any issues makes me feel better. I had not thought of the archives being up at the top that is a good idea. Thanks so much for suggesting it. I am going to have to re-do some of it anyway since the Sundance is gone :)
ReplyDeleteI have always had trouble with pictures on other blogs - sometimes I couldn't see the header, and some pictures mentioned in the blog would show but others wouldn't. I think it is the fact that I normally use Firefox for the Mac. Now when I write my blog I use Safari, and sometimes read them with Safari and sometimes on my Acer notebook. Almost all pictures from the blogs show up. I've never had a problem with the print running off the page. If the reader is having problems it could be the combination of your operating system and browser.
ReplyDeleteThanks Gypsy, all this feedback has helped and I hope that is the end of it...but not holding my breath. :)
DeleteI am having no problems with your site. I use Firefox on a laptop. You mentioned Anonymous had complaints and you said you had "no way to contact because all I get is a website advertising something" Possibly these comments are spam and they are complaining cause they hope people will click on their business site.
ReplyDeleteThank you so much for your support and letting me know that you are not having any problems. I feel better now. I was wondering if they could be spam. I am just going to have ignore them from now on.
DeleteI agree with Sara - I think they are spam. I'm definitely not having any problems with your blog.
ReplyDeleteThank you for letting me know. Since I had not blocked Anonymous from the blog I couldn't understand why they weren't showing up on the blog itself. Again thanks for letting me know I didn't really think about Spam but sure am thinking that now!
DeleteI'll occasionally get, or see on other blog, comments from someone who is Anonymous - but it's a real comment and they usually put their name or initials at the end. I think you have a spammer. Everything looks perfect to me. :)
ReplyDeleteI feel so much better hearing from all of you.
