Technical Help Needed!

Yes, something weird is happening to my blog again....maybe it's happening to yours too and you might be able to help me...

I've noticed that strange things are happening to some of the comments people have left on various posts. Fellow bloggers who use their Blogger/Google IDs to post comments are now showing up as anonymous. I know who they are because the comment originally came up with their ID but now suddenly it has been switched to anonymous. This hasn't happened on all posts, only some. Also the blogger ID photos aren't showing up on the comments either.

Please help o technical gurus!

Cheers!

i 'think' it might have something to do with the move to blogger beta. If people are registered under the old blogger, I think they show up as 'anon'. Only those registered in blogger beta have identities now...i think.

Least thats what I think I remember reading:P Sure someone will clear it up more:)

Also my annoyingly long 'Darth Terios' name that I used on comments recently should link to my terios.org web page - I mean, it used to. But it no longer does.
Hey I just made a blog - http://carpediemseizethefishgod.blogspot.com/ - not a real one, but for test purposes. I'm gunna try linking to that.
Although, it's a new account, so maybe that doesn't prove anything.

Hmmm, I've switched to blogger beta now but photos still don't come up on comments. Everyone switch to blogger beta thanks :)

the photos come up when i look at comments!

Sarah said...

How weird! Who here has moved to blogger beta and who hasn't?

bek said...

ive got blogger beta. the pictures and everything is fine just middo and us have squished faces. you can still see them they are just a little smaller!

Sarah said...

I just realised I can't see profile photos on comments on anyone's blog, not just mine. Just went to Middo's blog and can't see pics on his comments either. Hmmm maybe it's my computer or something. Any suggestions?

Sarah said...

Instead of pics, I just see a square with a tiny triangle, square and circle in it. I've tried right clicking on it and choosing Show Picture but that doesn't work.

bek said...

maybe its just you ;p

bek said...

hehe youve got more comments on this than you have your previous post!

Sarah said...

Hehe, yes people are more interested in my technical probs than in dating. Although half the comments are from me - but it sure looks impressive that I have 11 comments on this post :D

I see photos. Bek's head is normal, you are normal, well I mean as close to normal as you usually are, Middo's is squashed down, or pulled out sideways. For a few seconds before his photo appeared though, I had the dreaded "square with a tiny triangle, square and circle in it".
Hopefully it will all settle down within a few days.

Sarah said...

Yay I see photos (including Middo's squashed head)! Apparently the non secure items on the page weren't showing or something but now they are. Well ya learn something new every day! :D
