Just in Time..

Well, I did it!  I replaced all the photo's that I've posted for the last 3 years!  And none too soon... the last 3 weeks worth (prior to aol announcing the collapse of journals) had turned into little red X's a week sooner than they said they would.

In order to replace those pics I had to have blogspot open, photobucket open, my copy of my journal in word open, notepad open and paintshop pro open!  It was not fun!

Now I ask that if anyone should, at any time, go into my archives and fine little red X's instead of a photo to let me know.  There shouldn't be any, but at times I was so tired while replacing them that I may have made a mistake here and there.

As much work as that was (and it WAS!) other people still had it worse.  Some folks, once they uploaded photo's to the web, would delete them from their hard drive (I did not.  I have 59 folders worth of pictures from my journal alone!).   If they wanted to save their photo's they had to download them all back to their hard drive (one at a time) before they could then upload them to another site to replace them in blogspot! 

Besides whatever pictures I uploaded thru blogger I also uploaded some 2,112 to photobucket!

I think a bunch of us need to send AOL a nice thank you note ..heh.

Anyway.. it's done, and I don't ever want to repeat that again!

I hope all the aol journals managed to make some sort of transition, even if they don't/ didn't replace photo's..

It's a shame aol is slowly taking away all the perks to being on aol.. I have a feeling soon there won't be aol at all.  I know many don't like aol but it's still a shame because for people like me (old and not too bright) it is a program that allows the untrained to be able to get around on a computer.

On a completely different note...

I am only half way thru Inkdeath but slowly getting back to reading it.. I can already tell anyone who read her first two books, that she has another winner in this one!
