WTF happened to my images (again)?

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.

oh my goodness, your e-popularity is crazy, ST. That sucks. Would an e-blowjob make you feel better? :P

LOL at Rufus and Frances making out. That's like... self-cest. It's kind of gross.

I use this client, which is pretty easy. You just install it into your registry, and as long as you have the 'show common tasks' in the folder option selected, when you click on the X on the folder tab, you get that control panel underneath. You can upload an entire folder or just a few pictures that way. It took me a while to figure out at first, because I didn't know how to get the control panel view thingie. If you have the right view selected, you can toggle it with the folders button too.

This is assuming you have windows and you can follow my lame instructions, of course!

And to Ripp, I'm sure she'd make a lovely kitchen decoration!

Whoa, that was fast! You only uploaded the entry two days ago!

(not that it's surprising, your story is amazing :) )

I have no idea about another client, I'm too used to photobucket and the one time I tried to use LJ, I was sick by the fifth picture I uploaded, it was just too slow!

From this entry, I noticed your pictures are around 200Kb-300Kb. Back when I had Photobucket issues, my pictures were that size, so I stopped saving them with the highest quality. I still use high quality, but try to keep them under 150kb. Of course, I guess the quality is affected by this, and your pictures lately have been so pretty :).

I hope you find a solution for the PB problem. And those two pictures are so funny! Frances looks so surprised!

I've been using semagic for a while now, tho never used any other, as that one works perfect for me, so can't really compare. It allows you to write the whole post with the images and pretty much does the uploading job by itself. You only have to specify the folder on you scrapbook. Of course it can be use to upload images only as well.

Hope it helps, and that you find solution to the problem soon. :)

I use Fotofox, which is a plugin for Firefox. Oh, damn, I just realised that it doesn't seem to have capabilities to run with Photobucket. Damn.

Ripp is wrong on so many levels...

And Frances! That seems so unlike him, somehow!

Hm, looks like Ripp would like to decorate his kitchen with that girl's butt instead *ahem* xD

Semagic will actually upload your pics in nice batches, but it took me a while to figure out where it is hidden in the program. It's better than any other method I've tried (including the actual WinXP widget, which has always sucked a lot for me, it fails out allthedamntime).

Well, that's what happens when you're awesomely awesome all the damn time! ^__~

OMG, Rufus Wainwright kissing Frances! :D *sings: you said watch my head about it, my head about it, oh no, oh no, oh no, no kidding...*
