I am trying to upload photos to my blog using my iPhone. I have succeeded in uploading text but not photos. Are there any tricks? And what about profile photos - since apple products can't use Flash player s there another way?

Berylvt,

As per the updates I just loaded into your blog see this blog post that shows how to load blogs and photos via email.

How to Create a Blog Using your iPhone - A step by Step Guide

As for profile photos at the moment the answer is no there is no non flash way of loading images. It is being worked on but is not currently available. If you are stuck please email a photo for your profile to our office along with your member number and email address and Adele will load a photo up for you.

The images are processing now ok but I would also suggest that you do not use the small size (the images are just too small) - I always use Medium or Large dependant on the service I have. If good just send large it make the shole thing look and work better.

Great- thanks for that. I used the instructions in the the document you linked. They were slightly different from my first attempt. Then both the first and second attempts came up together into the blog! Was I just too impatient orcwas there a glitch at your end?

Anyway - looks like both methods work ( yours for multiple photos and mine for singles).

Thanks for a great site!

BTW the address I used was blogs@exploreoz.com but your document doesn't have the E in the address. Yet it worked! That's odd!!

Berylvt,

We support emails with or without the 'e' but to be most correct you should drop out the 'e'. There is generally a delay of up to 30 mins to publish a blog via email so this may be part of the issue. I am also working on this code as there is something a little funny happening where a blog will fail to load then if I queue it again without any other changes it works perfectly so for some reason it can be a little off. As mentioned I am working on this now as I am going to be using the blogs heavily for the next 5 weeks via email.

Enjoy your usage and please just drop us feedback (using the feedback system) or email (info@exploroz.com) if you encounter any problems.

Also note that we have a 30 day cycle of blog emails and can reprocess any blogs updates for a period of 30 days if something fails or a blog does not upload. Just let us know the title and we can dig it out and re-apply if required. But this is the step I am working to resolve at the moment.

Have a good one.
