A Hint For Blogspot Bloggers
A friendly reminder.....
Having had a Blogspot blog, this one, but abandoning it for my own hosted blog, I'd like to give a tip on comment settings. You must choose "Anyone can comment" or something to that effect or some of us simply cannot post. People who do not have a Google/Blogger, Wordpress, Typepad, LiveJournal, AIM, or that OpenID thing, whatever that is, can't post a comment. If I leave a comment on your blog with my name and blog address typed in, (something I really don't like to do - sounds pushy or something) your settings aren't rest-of-the-world friendly. I see this all the time and most times, it's just because, well, you don't realize it excludes lots of folks. Probably, most of the people out there use one of those services, but there are those who don't. There are a whole lot of people who love to read blogs, but don't blog themselves. Many of them would love to leave a comment, but have none of those accounts.
For someone who doesn't like to sound pushy, that smacked of it, didn't it? Sorry.
Here's how to do it:
Go to "Dashboard"
Next, choose "Settings"
Then "Comments"
Under "Comments" find, "Who can comment?" Choose the first option: Anyone - Including Anonymous Users
Use a spam filter if you feel that will be a problem, but I never had any.

I'm migrating
This is my last Blogger post. I'm moving to Just Vintage blog. Please, if you have me bookmarked or linked - please, someone have me bookmarked or linked - it needs updating.
The blog doesn't look very good, but that'll have to wait. Maybe you can stand it for the brief minutes you'd be there. 'Course this one never looked all that good, either. ;-)

More stuff
Oh, how dreary and rainy it's been with Fay sitting on top of us these past few days. I'm so thankful for the rain, but it does make me sleepy. I didn't get out this weekend, but am still working through the previous weekend's things.
I believe I mentioned that my web site died? That's consumed me for the past month. I like the computer to do what I need it to do. I don't care much for fixing things. Don't really like building things either, but once it's built, I sure don't want to do it again - much less three more times! Yuck! I'd think it was getting there and something would go wrong and I'd have to start over. I think I lost some pictures in the process, but most are back up. The web site should be fully functioning now. Keeping my fingers crossed. It needs some cosmetic work, but that is not priority. Adding items is. Today I added the blue and pink cup and saucers, a Wedgwood plate, a folk art bird painting and..... something else? Can't remember. All of that was from the recent sales. Here are the rest of the pictures:
Japan fondue forks, gold handle knives and Birmingham centennial hankies.
Can't resist Christmas stuff.
Mostly Italian nativity figures.
I need to put backs on these stockings.
Vera towels and a rooster towel.
Can't you just see these reliefs in a mid century modern kitchen?
A fabulous fireplace had sold in the house with the good, old stuff. They broke all the tiles surrounding it. Now I wish I'd got all the pieces instead of just these few - especially since they were free!
Unstretched painting of a girl.
Unstretched and unfinished.
Another unstretched painting.
Calla lilies print and the folk art bird painting.
Unstretched sunflower painting.

And this concludes the show. I think that's all I got pictures of, anyway.
Now, I'm working on getting the blog moved over to the web site. I'll let y'all know.
