Say Cheese!
Since I can’t upload photos to WordPress, I am trying an URL upload system.
This is supposed to work if you have a webcam. And, by “you”, I really mean you, not me.
So, if you have a webcam, I may be able to activate it (using software, of course, since I’m not going to be sitting here waiting for you to read the page so I can try to enable your webcam). Anyway, make sure your webcam is on and let’s give this a whirl.
Okay, if you’re reading this, it may be because it’s working, or something has gone wrong and it’s displaying this message anyway. But, if your webcam is on, there’s a good chance this is working.
So, what you need to do is look at the asterisk that’s coming up. You may need to scroll up a bit…
*
See it? Don’t scroll past it! Make sure it’s at about the center of your screen. This should line your face up for the webcam.
Once you’ve got it in the middle of the screen, go ahead and smile. Or make a funny face–whatever you want to do. Just nothing pornographic, okay? Other readers will see this too.
Whenever you’re ready to take a photo, just click this right here and wait 5 seconds: [CLICK HERE] If the asterisk is off the screen, you’ve got five seconds to reposition it and make a face. Okay?
So, go ahead and do that and I’ll wait…
I’m still waiting…
Are you done yet? There are no further instructions if that’s what you’re looking for. Just go back up and do it!
Okay, done?
Cool. Now, you’ll just have to wait until tomorrow to see the pictures. They’ll be uploaded into a directory and then I’ll be able to display them. Hopefully. We’ll see what happens!



I feel so bad for you- you still don’t have a working picture uploader on here eh? Did you try to go back to an earlier version of word press? I remember it wasn’t the plugins…
Wordpress can be so difficult to work with sometimes… fortunately Jer does all the technical stuff for me on my blog. I wouldn’t know where to begin when it starts acting out.
So I saw a link to my blog about Humphrey Bogart this morning and first I thought it was you trying to steal some vintage thunder… then when I realized it wasn’t you- I got all excited, until I saw it was a link aggregator or link farm site. Bah Humbug.
PS I saw you on Facebook the other and you didn’t wish me a happy birthday- so I still have to kick you.
I did on Twitter!
Oh ok- well come on over for cake and ice cream then.
I don’t have a webcam, and now I am kinda glad!
I’m kind of wishing those that did, didn’t…
