I think because you are so well known, maybe people think you have a 'staff' that does all the computer work for you. I hope people will stop complaining and enjoy what they do get to see and what you share with us all. Thank you.

Here are some suggestions for those who can't view the slideshow: try another browser (Internet Explorer, Mozilla Firefox, Google Chrome, Safari). You can download and install any of these through the internet. BEFORE doing this, make sure you have updated the software on your computer. Go to your computer's manufacturer site and check for downloads. Upgrade everything. Then download and try a new browser.

Shame on the ones who complain. Like everyone has said you do so much for the Quilting Community that if I had to wait a few minutes or come back to see your slideshows life would not come to an end and I certainly would not complain about it.

You won't hear a peep from me if something doesn't work. I appreciate you also posting to the Vintage Sewing Machine facebook page. I enjoyed the slide show several times.

Even shaped cake pans. Her striped wallpaper reminds me of the lickable wallpaper in Willy Wonka! Snozberrys and sewing machines! You must have had a fun day! Thanks for all you do. If you see Teresa R, tell her HI. She's supposed to be in class with you today.

I tried to see the slide show the other day when you posted it and couldn't get it and thought...that is too bad but will try later. This morning when I tried it came up and I enjoyed it but if it wouldn't I would not complain. Computers and the internet are finicky things and you need to keep your blog the way you want and unless you are a computer wizard there are things you just can't fix or don't have the time to fix. Keep on doing what you are doing - enjoy your blog the way it is.

Does that mean she has no time to sew? I love it! I love it! Don't worry about snarky people. They are small and mean.

This is the first time I have made a...Hey, Bonnie!<br /><br />This is the first time I have made a comment on your blog, but I have been following for a while now. I am not a quilter. Both of grandmothers however were avid quilters and I have vivid memories of them sitting together quilting and that's basically what draws me to blogs like yours. I love the fabrics and the colors and the patterns and all things quilting, from a non-quilter perspective and I love your blog. <br /><br />I just wanted to say that I am a blogger as well. A book blogger. And I have had some great feedback on my posts and some that were negative. I believe everyone has a right to their opinion, however the don't have the right to voice it, in this case. It's fine to tell someone that a feature is not working on their blog, which appears to be happening with your slide shows. However, nasty comments are not acceptable in any way. <br /><br />I know the reason I started blogging was because I LOVE books, the same way you LOVE quilts. This blog is about you. It's about what you love about your subject. You post what you want to post and really if others don't appreciate it, there are many others out there who do. Don't let negativity weigh you down. I love your slideshows and they work just fine for me. It probably comes down to what kind of computer and browser and your followers are viewing them on. In that case there isn't much you can do about it. <br /><br />Don't stop posting them, because those of us who can view them, lov'em! justpeachy36https://www.blogger.com/profile/07162185669406984912noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13569819.post-3447389461785272842013-04-03T12:12:29.947-04:002013-04-03T12:12:29.947-04:00How sad that people can't appreciate the effor...How sad that people can't appreciate the effort you put in to sharing your personal times with us.

I tried, didn't work, didn't worry about it. If I was meant to see them, it will work when it's ready. Just wasn't sure why I got a screen to sign in with a password. <br /><br />I just think that it is absolutely wonderful that you have this really awesome blog with huge amounts of information in it. And you post everyday multiple times. a lot of the blogs I read don't post every day. One hasn't posted in something like 5 or 6 months. I don't complain, I just keep hoping. <br /><br />Anyway, we love you and your blog.
