I do too Maggie. Works like a charm and I've had no problems with picture storage either.

I am wondering how you all don't run out of photo room when you post for a few years? Do you downsize your photos? I ran out of space in Alaska. I thought starting a new blog it would restart storage amount - wrong!

I started with Wordpress and it kept losing my posts! I am sure it was operator error at first, but when I was successful and did it the same way after that, sometimes they would post and sometimes they were gone! Also seemed to take forever, but again, that might have been operator error.

I went to Blogspot after that and use Picasa for photos.

I use Blogger and Picassa and haven't had any problems either with losing photos or running out of space.

Just a note that I've never lost a post on WP. And I find it super easy and don't have to use any other photo hosting company. When the plug ins are mentioned, yes, you can add lots of things and make it way more difficult. Then again, I've been told the plug ins can make things easier, too. I've only added a couple to further track where visitors are coming from, for example.

That said, if WP hadn't come with my hosting who knows what I'd be using.

And I'll repeat, whichever one you're going to USE is the right one for you.

Thank you everyone for your input. I want to do a travel blog cuz friends and fam want to know what we're doing and see pictures. most of them don't FB, so I have to email pix and stuff. I will give them the link to the blog and then it is up to them to follow or not. :P

I have done websites in the past. I'm familiar with Using WP for websites that are hosted on GoDaddy. However, I don't plan to continue my unlimited hosting acct. with GD after it expires this year. However, technology and new things available are changing every nano second and there is no way I could possibly keep up with it all. So thank you for letting me know what's out there and what is working for you. I just want easy :P

YAH, RIGHT! ACK!!!!!

But I am grateful for any pics whether on blogs or right on here----I LOVE pics. But I also know how time-consuming they are to post and comment on.

Thanks to all for as much as you can post.
