David Baldinger - Cartoonist & Photographer

I see that whatever problem I was having with images here at Blogger has been corrected. After having spent the time setting up my blog over at my hosted site, I think I will continue using it. I hate the thought of using up my storage allotment for more images but I have come to enjoy using Blogdesk to post with. Microsoft has a new blog writer called " Live Writer " that is very nice, surprisingly but I like the drop shadow Blogdesk creates on images a little better. Live Writer works with Blogger but Blogger doesn't allow for uploading images through a system like this. If you just post text, it is a good idea. I've been noticing that I still have a lot of traffic to this blog but almost nothing at my new one.

Blogger Beta has been acting very stupid lately. For some reason, pictures I upload do not appear in the posts. I give up trying to get all the Blogger problems solved. I've decided to install a Wordpress blog on my hosted site. I will from this post on be using my " Cartoons & Stuff Blog ." To publish this post, I had to save as "draft," reopen it and then publish. It seems that to make Blogger better, they are making it worse.
