Blog address taken
Q: I want that blog address; but it was already taken.
A: Please think outside the square. Go alpha numeric (e.g. gordonmc859 dot blogspot dot com) I am certain that this blog address is available. I have over 60 blogs and never had a problem with picking a blog address. Be aware that visitors are attracted to visit your blog because you have interesting and varied contents, not because it has a fancy address. You can always change your blog address later when you think of a good one. Pick any available URL and start blogging today.

However, the good news is this, right now you can still pick that blog name (title) you like, because blog name can be shared; blog address must be unique. Blog name (title) and blog address (URL) are not the same thing.

Other than [Blog this]
Q: Is there another way to upload photos to my blog?
A: There is a work around. Instead of using the [Blog this] button, have you tried using the [Upload button] on Picasa? It is the first button with the green arrow. I used this to upload large numbers of images to Picasa Web Album. It took about 8 seconds per image. I uploaded photos in batches of 25.
From there, it is a breeze to post them to your blog:
On your post editor, click the photo icon on the tool bar as before.
Select [from Picasa Web Album]
Select album, select photos, [add selected]. (The transfer is made instantly, no waiting and no limit on the number of photos selected).
Publish post.

Photo uploading problems
The post editor box can be enlarged by dragging the bottom right corner of the box. This way we can see more clearly when we drag the photos around in that little box. Although I know a lot about photo placement, I find that it is still very difficult to wrap text around the photos like they do in a magazine or newspaper. I like the feature for adding a caption under each photo; but the padding below the caption seems not to be the same for every photo.

Q: Why can I not move my photos around?

1. Experiment first with a test blog. Perhaps that is what you need to do now: start a test blog. It is free. Blogging is really a personal journey of discovery. If we only have the help forum, then blogging will become too slow for some people. We will be spending too much time asking questions and waiting for answers. This is a slow way of learning, especially for those with a steep learning curve.
2. Help someone else with their problems and in the process learn something new yourself. Try your hand also at posting answers rather than only asking questions on this help forum.

Just in case you do have some more questions like this one; but do not wish to start a test blog, please hover your mouse over my name and click on [FAQ & answers]. Click on "photos" or any label in my labels list. I also have answers for your next 20 questions! If you cannot find the answer there, refer to my blog list at the bottom of the page. We have just found another way of learning about blogger blogs: learn from others who know about blogs; no need to reinvent the wheel. When you have no more questions to ask, read the other answers on the help forum which are marked in green [Best Answer]. These are worth reading.

Delete my blog
Q: I made a blogger blog a long time ago, how do I delete it if I no longer have the email associated with it?
A: Yours is not a new problem. We have numerous requests to delete blogs, daily. Google does not delete unwanted blogs. In fact they do not provide a contact email address or tel No. Volunteer helpers, like me, are bloggers just like you. We have no access or authority to do it for you.

Every blogger has to realize that they are responsible for their own blogs. To manage your blog as an admin, you have to maintain an active email account and record down your password somewhere safe. That's all.

email me/call me
Volunteer helpers like me, will not call you on your phone or respond to your email directly because the answers will not be seen by other bloggers except you. This defeats the purpose of this forum: we share the answers with all bloggers (45 million world wide). This way the same question will not be asked again and again.
To set up an email alert, (so that you will receive an email, when some one answers your question), please come back to this page, scroll down and check the box under subscribe (Email me when people reply) and click on [save] before you leave this forum.
Why you need to subscribe
The incorrect assumption many people make is that they can easily come back on this help forum to look for replies to their question. This is not true because their thread will be buried under an avalanche of other questions post by other users (45M bloggers) within a matter of days. You need to set up this email alert. Then the replies look for you!

Delete a question
Q: How do I delete my question after it has been answered?
A: Yes, there is a way. You will need to contact and ask the person (who responded to your question) to remove all his replies first. Then you can easily remove your original question.
A: Yes, there is a way. You will need to contact and ask the person (who responded to your question) to remove all his replies first. Then you can easily remove your original question.
The idea of setting up this help forum was to share answers to problems with all bloggers. This avoids the same question being asked again on this forum. There is also the question of etiquette. You are happy; but what about the other 43 million other bloggers?
If you are concerned about privacy issues there are other solutions:
1. make your blog private
2. change the URL
3. avoid posting sensitive info on the internet.
