Can't Upload Photos with Facebook Photo Uploader

Here is a tip, if the new Facebook photo uploader gives you a hard time. I'll share my experiences to solve this problem with you. But first, let me release a little dissatisfaction from my chest. It refuses to upload my photos like the previous simple uploader. Arrgh!

Well, I shouldn't complain for something that is free, should I? But innovation only feels good, if it gets better. LOL

I guess we need to give this new Facebook photo uploader innovation more time to improve. In the meantime, I hope this post will help.

If you have the same problem with me, this is what you do when the photo uploader starts to act up. Just log out of your Facebook account and log in again to upload your photos. It usually solves the problem. But if not, you gotta restart your computer.

This solution works for me, tough takes some extra time than the usual. I searched for some answers on the web and it seems like there is still some unfixed bug, when you upload photos with software modification. Even of the slightest kind like in mine.

I love natural, unedited photos. But I always resize my photos, before I upload them to Facebook. Sometimes they also need light corrections. If I'm in the mood for frames, I add it to them as variation or accents. So, I really can't avoid using softwares like Photoshop. I hope that the Facebook team can solve this bug soon.

Haiku to Meditate


Debonnaire Definition and HaikuThanks Jenn for this haiku theme

Meditate


Burst of emotion.
Crumbling down inside of you.
Relax, take a breath.

~RA


There are these days in our life where everything seems to go wrong. Since early morning, it feels like getting off on the wrong side of the bed. Nothing... just nothing gets as you wish! Days like these make me wanna scream or even cry. But, screaming and crying actually won't bring you anywhere. So, what to do? Well, you could give yourself a break and start to meditate. It's the art to reach some peace of mind. Focusing on the positive rather than seeing the negative. Finding a way to release your stress or even anger, leading to clear thoughts that help you carry on and reflect on life. A media to energize!

On a side note I gotta tell you, sometimes I feel like Jenn can read my mind. It has been a couple of times that the given themes correlated so well with my present life.  Like today, I felt quite hectic from the start. But, thinking about this theme made me realize that I needed to relax from these burst of emotion, crumbling down inside of me. It really helped me to get back to my usual self with this meditate haiku theme. Thank you. If you feel in distress, may be you should try to take on haiku too?


The meme basics:

Haiku is simple!
It is 3 non-rhyming lines of 5, 7, and 5 syllables respectively
(a great way to use your fingers!)

I don't create poetry, I create myself,
for me my poems are a way to me.

~Edith Södergran

Keep a poem in your heart.

Dona Nobis Pacem (Grant Us Peace) 2011


It is this point of time again, where you can join the movement of Bloggers and people all over the world to promote peace through your blog or Facebook profile. This is my 400th post and the third participation in Blog Blast for Peace since 2009. I'm writing in the believe of hope, trust and love embedded in the human hearts. A prayer to see a world full of warmth and joy. A wish like Satish  Kumar's quote states, "Lead me from despair to hope, from fear to trust; Lead me from hate to love, from war to peace; let peace fill our heart, our world, our universe." As cliche as it may sound to you, I'm with John Lennon that love and peace are eternal.
