Some of us may need a tutorial.

It's much like posting with a few wrinkles. Just go to the Blog page and click "Post to my Blog". And then add text as if you were adding a post. When you click "Go To My Blog" there will be a link there to "Blog Options" where you can make a few changes such as create categories and add a title to your blog. Just play around you can edit as needed.

:lolabove:...well, you did something, because you have "1" blog entry under your name! I love how personal that notice was!

Miss Kitty, you do not have permission to access this page. This could be due to one of several reasons:

Your user account may not have sufficient privileges to access this page. Are you trying to edit someone else's post, access administrative features or some other privileged system?
If you are trying to post, the administrator may have disabled your account, or it may be awaiting activation.

I just went and under Blog Options I checked that everyone may view my blog and make comments on my blog. Someone check to see if they can see my blog now. (that sounds strange)

This should have been the default condition but everyone should check it on their blogs.

This should have been the default condition but everyone should check it on their blogs.

This has now been fixed for new blogs. If you have already created your blog be sure to set your blog to public in your blog control panel if you want your blog to be public.
