In reply to: Paste screen shot in post without FTPHandySolo: you rock!
The Microsoft Writer at
http://windowslivewriter.spaces.live.com/PersonalSpace.aspx?_c02_owner=1is AWESOME! I can paste screen shots (or regions of screen shots) directly into the post and everything is automatic!
This does everything I want & need! I’ll stop looking for post by e-mail gizmos, or any other plugin or hack.
Thanks so much for pointing me in this direction!

In reply to: Paste screen shot in post without FTPThanks so much for suggesting a weblog client. I never heard of such a thing and am researching this direction right now.
Over lunch, I was looking at some other blogging software in hopes blog by email worked. Godaddy offers Nucleus blogging software free, pre-installed.

In reply to: Paste screen shot in post without FTPYes, I am using WordPress 2.04.
I went to paint.net and the website is for an OEM coatings manufacturer (I guess I’m missing something).
Even if I figure out the paint thing, it still sounds like it needs to be saved, browsed, located then ‘uploaded’.
I’m about to create a different thread for a ‘plan-b: posting via e-mail. Please read it and let me know what you think.
Thanks for your reply.

In reply to: GoDaddy “Economy Plan” and WPOne final thought to close the loop on this whole discussion.
Just for fun, I renamed my blog folder on the folder, did a fresh install to a fresh, empty folder and this time DID NOT do the whole permissions thing. It worked fine. Interestingly, I used my original database config file and sure enough, my sample posts were there. I created a new database, and changed my config file, and sure enough, it walked me through the install. I think I’ll keep my second/fresh install done without changing permissions on the folders.

In reply to: GoDaddy “Economy Plan” and WPGot it solved!
My godaddy account was trashed, or sooo messed up, it just wouldn’t work. (It was originally windows/asp, running front page, then de-front-paged it, de-windows’d it and changed to php linux hosting, but still didn’t work.
I noticed something about upgrade to 2.0 feature set, and I figured it would be best to cancel my hosting account, wait till it purged, then create a new one with today’s current defaults and settings. That solved it. I simply did the same install I must have tried 20 times, and it worked out of the box.
So, sometimes, a completely fresh start is a good idea. BTW, my hosting account was many years old, so it might not have everything a freshly setup php account would have today.

In reply to: GoDaddy “Economy Plan” and WPactually, I started from scratch, re-uploaded the entire wp to /blog , created a fresh database, and still get the “too many files open” error. (so it doesn’t have anything to do with changing themes, except the error occures when I navigate to the presentation themes page.
Any ideas?

In reply to: GoDaddy “Economy Plan” and WPWell, I picked a theme, and unzipped it under the themes subfolder, uploaded it via ftp, and when I clicked on presentation | themes,
I got the stream of errors:

In reply to: GoDaddy “Economy Plan” and WPAfter I switched from ASP to linux hosting, I still had a problem connecting. I changed from localhost to:
mysql151.secureserver.netand it worked!

In reply to: GoDaddy “Economy Plan” and WPI just downloaded WP for use in my economy godaddy site.
I called them and was told it won’t work with economy Windows, but I needed to convert my site to economy Linux. Tech support said in their windows environment, php only works in safe mode, or something like that. Anyway, I just switched platforms (which takes 24-48 hours). I’ll let you know what happens,
