    I don't mean do away with the pictures, just make them smaller. On the other blog, it took a lot longer to reach 500 pages. We are going through pages extremely fast, lol. I like f=the pictures, but not too big, lol.

    I'm sorry, my memory is shot. The other blog was just a running page, no pages. It just went on & on and then they couldn't handle it. We lost a lot of people off that blog.

    No Suzie there were no pictures on the other blog....I think you were the one that started with the pictures..............Lets see how easy it is to switch over to another site and then it won't really matter how long it takes to reach 500 pages..

    It's true, this is a chat room compared to the other blog. I swear, it is and that's why a lot of people left. It doesn't bother us, but it was a big thing to them. Like even Warren. He no longer enjoyed it.

    Janet - I looked up the old blog, it did start in Julu 2006, but if you notice there were months in between with no posts....it really started to go full force between January and April of 2008 so it was not that long.....

    I already emailed the Administrator to see if changing over will cause problems, because we DO NOT want to lose anyone..... He will probably get back to me tomorrow.

    I read Warren's stories on the other site ...he has 2 maybe 3 friends

    LOL Suzie, when we teach people to post the pictures and other stuff, all I am saying is that we have to tell them to regulate this size to cut down on the bog problems and the amount of pages we go through, he he he.

    The other blog didn't have pictures, but it didn't crash ?????????????
  • suzie
    suzie
    and they post maybe 3x a week .....that blog can last a lifetime
  • judy giordano banjany

    Well I think what happened is when everyone started on the other blog, we all were mentioning different places, people, events everything we could think of......how many friggin things could we mention in a year. So we all became good friends and it sort of a chat room...'

    But thats why when someone new comes on they may mention a different story or event or someone that someone else knows and the conversation switches for a while, thats what happens on a blog like this.
