A random comment that might prove to be useful....

This is undoubtedly something you know already, you are bloggers after all.  Still, I felt that just in case somebody had missed this....

You can retrieve/find your Photo-images from your Blog, all stored.  They used to be in:

My Picasa  - 

however 

Google updated that and you can now find them in 

Google Album Archive  

Just put that into Google search 

OR 

put into the address/toolbar  this:

https://get.google.com/albumarchive

Sign in as you would normally to your blog.

{hope this helps}

That is very handy to know, Ill bookmark that page. Thanks Ann.

You helped me once before when I as looking for a particular photo and hadn't known about those albums.

Have you noticed that it's taking an age for comments to publish just lately, another Blogger blip it seems?

Glad to be of help Sonia :)

ann @ studiohyde said...

Yes, I thought it was just me with the slow publishing of comments....I sit and wait and wait and wait, and then whoosh! it publishes it.

Judy said...

Yes, slow publishing comments here too. Thanks for reminding us of the album archive. A lot harder to manage than picasa was though. I noticed that following a blog had changed: you cannot follow with your blogger account, only with your Google account. We are at the mercy of Google.

Thanks I didn't know this.

We are at the mercy. Trouble is, they get these ideas that don’t always work easily on a practical level. Just when I fathom something out, it gets changed, Grrrr!

Glad to help 🙂

Thanks, I didn't know this either. (Apparently they don't like my images, they only saved four of them! LOL)

ann @ studiohyde said...

Hi Robin, I thought only a few were saved. Try clicking where it says Blogger, once you have signed into it and see if they are there.

Yes, I figured this out when updating the 2 Urban Sketchers Blogger blogs I maintain. I now reuse the same location photos for sketch outing announcements and don't upload new ones.

ann @ studiohyde said...

Ahh the bloggers job of maintaining them.....sounds like you have it figured out :)

I'm enjoying catching up on your latest posts here. Didn't know about the photos. I'll have to check that out. I thought it was my blog that was having trouble publishing my comments for the last few days. It seems to be working much better today.

ann @ studiohyde said...

Hi Joan, yes thankfully the publishing glitch seems to have woken up. 🙂
