Help with images on blogger

I need some help from anybody who is familiar with blogger. Please.

There might be times when I want to post a picture in my blog post.

I have found in the posting toolbar a little icon which you can click and then a drop down window should open that lets you import the picture.

Here is the problem I am having. The icon is there but I can click all I want it and nothing is happening, it's like the dam thing is dead.

I searched the blogger help files from top to bottom and backwards again but could not find anything on how to make that feature come alive. At last I sent an email to blogger help with the specifc question how to make that feature work. The reply from blogger was nothing more than a long list of links that I already read.

Oh, yes I did go trough all the template set up features plus all else but zilch, nada, zero.

What gives? Do I miss something or I am just plain gaga

Any advice from esteemed blogging experts on how to activate the image adding feature in blogger would greatly appriciated.

maestrowork I think you hit the nail on the proverbial head. When I fumbeld around on blogger a little icon in the bottom try of my comp. screen turned up and as I hovered over it with mouse it said "pop-up window plocker on" but computer imbecile that I am I never made a conection between the two things.

I will try later if it is that. If not then I will come back here to complain some more.

Just a personal question to you, which you do not have to answer if you do not feel like it. From which disrict of Hong-Kong to you come? My wife and I lived and worked in Guangzhou for some years and got married in Hong-Kong. During our stay in China we went many times back to Hong-Kong we still have many friends in both China and Hong-Kong, for us it is like a home away from home.

Thanks for all your replies and tips.

maestrowork was right all the way. I went back last night and played around some more, with blogger that is, what where you thinking, eh. And sure enough it was that trop-down-window-blocker thingy.

As for the difference in apperance. We have several browsers on the computer where my wife tests the look of websites. Yes, she is the computer-website builder- html wizzard and smart guy around here. Not me. Not by a long shot. Anyway, my wife explained it to me that it has to do with how the browser reads the html coding. As I understand it, but don't bet your farm on it, each browser reads the info a little different hence the different look on different browsers.


Seems like what I have always said. We can fly to the moon and go for an afternoon stroll but down here we cant fix the simplest problems.

I am back with more problems and the hope someone will be able to help me.

I have decided to make a second blog. Yes, I know, I must be crazy.

Here is the problems I am having:

1. If I create a new blog in the existing log on page it will not let me change the profile on the new blog. The two blogs will have the same profile, which I don't want.

Question: Is there a way to have the two blogs on the same log in page and still have a different profile for each blog?

2. Because of the above problem I tried to create a new account. But in the field "User Name" my existing user name comes up and no matter what I tried I cannot change it, it will come back as "error you canot use this username".

Question: If there is a way to overcome this how do I go about it?

I know there are some member here who have two or even three blogs on blogger. How did you do it.member.php?u=2 maestrowork has three blogs, very good once at that, and he had good advice for me before.

Thanksa lot in advance for all you advice.
