As outlined in previous posts, I’ve switched to this Firefox plugin called ScribeFire to edit and manage Snaptophobia. It’s generally been a pleasant experience — until today. It’s the first time I’ve tried to add images — my bête noire.
Remembering the pain and anguish of doing this using the Blogger interface, I composed the text in ScribeFire, then tried to add an image.
I tried to add one from my Flickr account. ScribeFire couldn’t seem to locate it. I tried to add one from Flickr itself, which only works if I’m composing the post on the Flickr site. Gah!
I tried to add one from my local drive. This sort of worked, until it came to upload. How, in the name of all that’s holy, do I know whether Blogger is using API or FTP? It turns out to be an academic question, since neither worked.
So, and you may laugh, I ended up editing this post in Blogger. So much for progress.
