WTF happened to my images (again)?

[strangetomato]

I'll start by saying thank you. Yes, a big thank you to everyone who's been reading my latest update, because there really has to be quite a few of you out there. I'm a little blown away, to be frank. You've made short work of my PB bandwidth, and considering that it's only that one chapter on the account, this seems like it will continue to be a problem.

So I'm going to have to figure out how to use a client to upload to my lj scrapbook (the one at a time method ain't gonna fly). If anyone has a client or a simple tutorial they'd like to recommend, I would be very appreciative. I'm going to try to get that last update up again as soon as I can.

Also, this image just fits the WTF theme so well:

 

Getting randomly jumped by (your twin!) Rufus Wainwright, right in front of your boyfriend (who doesn't seem to care). Now THAT is a weird shit day.








Yeah, sure, Beau. Good call on that one. :P

Also, the kitchen decoration Ripp wants is a collection of wine bottles. Tsk, tsk. Some people are just hopeless.

I've heard someone mention that before. Was it you? How do you write the post with pictures? Do you just add the filename as a placeholder?

Thank you. I hope so too.

lol maybe it was. I know I did mention it on my journal the first time I used it. I was sooo happy XD

Here are the clients lj recommends for posting
http://www.livejournal.com/download/
tho now I have the doubt if you use windows or not, but if so
http://www.livejournal.com/download/?platform=Windows

Anyways, I like semagic because its almost like using word directly to write, and you can simply drag the pictures from your hard drive into the post (you don't even need to upload first to have the right url). Once you "post", the program automatically uploads the images, changes the url and creates the new entry on your journal. Plus because is a word like program you can save your progress at any point, check spelling, and preview the entry before posting. Also has all LJ features for locked post, comments, mood, music, etc.

The only 'bad' thing is that you only 'see' code while using the program, you don't have to write, tho, but the entry only shows with italics and images and such on the preview, not on the program windows itself. Not sure how to explain it better lol but in short words, it makes the whole process of posting a lot easier! :)

oo I've never tried doing it with semagic. I always write mine up in notepad first. I might have to try it this way!

I totally recommend it. :)

I was getting really tired between writing, and uploading, and posting, and checking for the image's url in PB. Plus I personally like word better than a wordpad (its easier and has good spellcheck! lol), but also meant I had double work to avoid all the extra coding the program adds to the text, so literally it took me hours to make even the smaller post O_o

Semagic does all that in one click. Its like magic for sure!! XD
