I am going to SCREAM!

I am SO mad right now.  OMG, I could totally SCREAM but I don't think it will make things better.  I've been working on a photo essay from Chandler's birthday party.  I was in the process of uploading 28 photos into my article.  It started off with about 28 minutes, although I don't think it actually took that long.  There were 54 seconds, 33 seconds, 21 seconds, 8 seconds, 1 second and then ERROR!

OMG, Now I have to upload the photos all over again - hoping it will actually work this time!

ARGH, I'm so irritated right now!

 

Is this happening to anyone else?

That stinks. Sorry to hear about this.

I know, I tried to post a few things earlier but it kept going to an error page so I finally gave up. Good luck
Trish A. Mar 23, 2009, 1:42pm EDT
Bummer!

No wonder you are frustrated. I have been having issues like this with uploading videos....arghh.
juley g. Mar 23, 2009, 1:43pm EDT
That happens to me a lot!
DiAnA D. Mar 23, 2009, 1:45pm EDT
bummer! Looking forward to the pictures.. someday :)
Sherry W. Mar 23, 2009, 1:46pm EDT
Just go ahead and scream, babe. It may help. :)
Heather W. Mar 23, 2009, 1:46pm EDT
I haven't uploaded anything yet today, but this isn't motivation to try :-/
Chris E. Mar 23, 2009, 1:47pm EDT
I wrote an article the other day that took be about a half hour. The one and only time I forget to copy it I get an error message and lose it. I typed it again and copied it this time. Again an error message. I had to do it again a put the videos back in. Again error. I went through this 6 times and then gave up.

It happened to me the other day. I only had two pictures, but that was irritating enough.

Walker just tried to upload a video, and the thing got stuff in processing, and then it wouldn't!
Lisa C. Mar 23, 2009, 1:48pm EDT
This has happened to me before. It'll make you nuts!
Rae M. Mar 23, 2009, 1:49pm EDT
Oh man, that would make me mad too, sorry that happened to you. I had trouble submitting my last post too. If I were you I would do a couple at a time, submit, then go do an edit, and add a couple more at a time, that way you know will not lose everything all at once.
Andrea H. Mar 23, 2009, 1:51pm EDT
I bet you are upset I would be too. I have not had any trouble uploading anything like that yet.
Melissa J Mar 23, 2009, 1:51pm EDT
I have a really hard time posting articles and photos to Gather now too. I'll try a couple of times and if it goes up, then great. But usually I get too frustrated and forget about it.

I feel your pain... I've been so mad at this place before, I have had to walk away for a few days and then not post for a month or so... no kidding. This has got to be the worst publishing site on the whole web, LOL.
Dana W. Mar 23, 2009, 1:57pm EDT
i am sorry I know if you post pics and add groups you can get the error you need to uplod the pics then not add groups then after they upload then you can add the groups
Diana B. Mar 23, 2009, 2:02pm EDT
My posts are taking forever to save. When I try to save the draft all I get is loading editor, but the actual post never shows up. This has been going on since the recent upgrade and hopefully the problem gets fixed. Oh yeah, btw all my previous posts were erased. This is a little frustrating to say the least.
Vivian P. Mar 23, 2009, 2:20pm EDT
hugs
Cynthia J. Mar 23, 2009, 2:22pm EDT
Oh, I HATE it when that happens. It's soooo frustrating. Big Hugs. It will get better.
Steph-in-NE ..... Mar 23, 2009, 2:54pm EDT
sorry about your frustration no problems here,,
Jennifer N. Mar 23, 2009, 3:16pm EDT
I had 4 photos take over a half hour to load last week... and then they didn't publish! I haven't seen it since, but videos are hit or miss.
Nancy * Mar 23, 2009, 3:16pm EDT
I haven't had that problem but haven't really uploade more than 5 or 6 at a time
fancy c. Mar 23, 2009, 3:41pm EDT
yes thats why i have been making my posts short
DesertDarlene L. Mar 23, 2009, 3:41pm EDT
I haven't been working with photos much today.
Katie R. Mar 23, 2009, 3:45pm EDT
Ugh ...So sorry. I hate glitches.:-/
Alex In Wonderland Mar 23, 2009, 6:01pm EDT
I don't do photo essays anymore because the last 5 I have done ended in error. I can't stand spending all that time and getting absolutely nothing from it.
Renee S. Mar 23, 2009, 6:11pm EDT
I don't blame you. My laptop suddenly won't burn DVDs from my camcorder and did about the same thing.
Janie E. Mar 23, 2009, 6:13pm EDT
No, and I uploaded 2 shots in a post the other day. Glad to know that you finally posted your essay.
Beth - Doing God's work Daily J. Mar 23, 2009, 9:52pm EDT
When that happens I have to start a new ablum.
Larry H. Mar 23, 2009, 10:12pm EDT
haven't tried anything like that..
Lisa Frost Mar 23, 2009, 10:37pm EDT
I have had a little trouble publishing lately too.
It happened to me last night. I clicked the back arrow button and it took me back without having to re upload! Maybe try that next time? Sometimes it works for me and sometimes it doesn't!
Courtney C. Mar 24, 2009, 12:03pm EDT
It took me forever to upload an album on Sunday. I ended up having to do one pic at a time to even get it to work and even then sometimes it wouldn't. Uploading pics here sucks.
Samantha V. Mar 26, 2009, 12:23pm EDT
This has happened to me a lot! *HUGS*
