We won't tire of seeing your image, but you might tire of ours.

That's the spirit, Sparky. You're such a good photog, I want the photo feature expanded. T

Hello, Ticia. Happy Unbirthday. Or maybe it's Happy Birthday TPM - at the Hospitality Center. (what a great idea!)
And I love the quote! So apt.

Hello, Ther, been a while. So great to see you.
Speaking of catching up, thank you so kindly for the birthday party, especially strawberries, lit candles, guests, and pretty words, like "Happy 40th!"

Welcome to Wonderland, Alice ;-) Damn, ANDREW, get the friggin' links back in comments. I'm floundering here without YouTube and don't forget spell check; I'm tired of having to actually read what I write. Geez ;-)

Lone Oak, you're here, yes! btw, were you able to post you tube yet with embedded links? I haven't had a chance to check it out.

This is OH SO FRUSTRATING I just put it a good 10 minutes responding and lost it. ANDREW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Fix this mess :-)
I copy the URL and paste it in the links window that appears whenI click Link. Did I answer your question?
Good to see you. How's your "case on"?

Can you embed them in comments? All I get at the moment is that "way long" address look.

The only place I've been successful creating a link is in the main page of a post.

Ditto, here. btw, are you able to get tracking of your comments like in the Old Daze?

I'm doing a test, Tish. As I tried to post to you again and got the "you need to be registered" message.
As hospitality chair, I hope you're busy asking for links and edit features. I'm sure your picture alone should do the trick!

From what I can fathom at these early stages, I can embed links in posts, but not in comments and replies to comments. Let's keep posting our discoveries, Ther.

Andrew told me that I needed to clear cookies to get things to work, which appears to have been the case. Unfortunately, with Firefox and my specific security software, cookies are too much like the Cape Cod Oatmeal variety: you can't just eat/reset one.
Having to log in again at various sites isn't the worst thing in the world. Unfortunately, I had a shopping cart partially loaded at Tiger Direct, which is an often very cheap, but often frustrating PC mail order supply -- I lost the cart contents and, unfortunately, some good discounts since their prices change constantly.
There was a time when low-level support technicians would say "reinstall Windows" when anything went wrong. Unfortunately, "clear cookies" can also have major effects.
With Firefox, some security add-ons, such as McAfee, do allow specific cookie controls, but I found it almost impossible to use because it blocked everything by default. To a certain extent, that is good security practice -- if it's reasonably easy to authorize cookies, as "site XXX is asking to send a cookie." McAfee required you go through a complex set of menus to manually enable any cookie.
Growf. I may need the edible kind of cookie.

I'm seeing my image here, but not on my own post. Whatever.

I'm seeing your image at your post and alongside your comments, as well. I did log out and log back in, at a point, in the course of checking out stuff. I cannot embed links in comments, but can in posts. Clue?

I think I'll look for some kind of "logo" myself, Tom! Thanks for the idea.

According to Andrew:
You'll be able to edit them [comments], soon. We're working on that. For now, just be extra super careful.

Well, I just went to change my user name, but someone's got the one I wanted.
Stuck with mine...
Need to add a picture soon.

cscs,
No name new in the zoo for you?
Thought of changing mine, but still trying to master basic log in, posting, and commenting procedures. ;D
So good to see you.

Pseudo, can't thank you enough. This is the best blog-warming gift I could ever have asked for.
