The image I posted is from MS Internet Explorer 8. I also use Google Chrome, Apple Safari and Mozilla Firefox. I used to use Firefox as my primary browser, but have had problems with it and it is no longer my first choice.

Maybe it only works in the Northern Hemisphere. Could it be affected by seismic disruptions?

I replied before I saw there was a whole other page full of magical pictures. I do have that blogs part then it let's you start a new blog if you agree to the term, conditions, mail a box of homemade gluten-free treats to Scott, etc.

Peter's screen is all squished up. I have a wide screen, and I tthink that the Blogs that he has "floating" around is the one I have in my option line next to Calendar. :rolleyes:

Maybe it's upside-down for you people down there.

This is an old notebook (ThinkPad T43 running XP SP2). If the line is too long, it will wrap around to the next line. If you have shiny new hardware with a wide screen, maybe you should look to the right instead of the left. :o

Hey! Yay! I have a blog. I tried linking to my external blog and it seems to just create a link rather than showing posts. I haven't done a new post on my external blog yet, so we'll see if it shows up here as well next time. If not, I'll just create a local blog. Cool. Thanks.

For me it's next to the Calendar, too. Wonder if it depends on screen resolution. ???

Hm. So new posts from my linked blog don't show up. I started trying to make a local blog but it doesn't let me copy-paste in html. I tried using the "Other Styles" drop down menu, which inserted a 

 at the beginning and

at the end, but it still just put my html in the post as typed (and not wrapping) like a pre tag would actual html. Is there any way to be able to put in html so I don't have to re-write all my posts with this annoying wysiwyg editor?

cute. So when I tried to show what it did, it used the tag. sigh. I hate these stupid editors.

Tags from HTML which use < and > as delimeters do not work here.

Open Original Shared Link do generally work.

Ugh. Does anyone have a handy script to change html to bbcode?

I bet no iframes or links to amazon or floating images work on the blog either, eh? Maybe it's too much trouble.

Links to the site named after the largest river in South America can not be posted here. You get (Company Name Removed - They Spammed This Forum and are Banned) if you try to post their url.

OK, so now I've added a bunch of posts, and I tried to add another one. After the tedious process of changing everything to bbcode it is now telling me I've posted too many images. It doesn't say if that's a total in my blog or just per post. I can't find the place where it tells me how many are allowed. The pictures are documenting a step by step process, so it's kind of annoying to have to remove them. Grrr.

Joy, the limit is on images in a single post. I don't know exactly what it is. You can post clickable links to images with no limit that I know of. If you are posting on the board you can break the post up into two or more posts. I don't know about the blogs.

Oh wow, domesticactivist. You're a real blogger! That borscht recipe looks awesome. I just wanted a spot to store some forum posts that took a while to type. :lol:

Oh, nice. If you want to keep track of a good blog, there is a "like" button on it. Then you can get to it from the little drop-down menu you get when you click your name as "My Liked Content".

Thank you! I must admit I have help with the blog! My partner, Kelsy, does most of the cooking and wrote most of the food posts that are up so far. I have written a bunch but have yet to convert them to bbcode :) if you look on the original blog you can see which of us wrote them.

I hadn't realized how popular the blogs here are - I hadn't looked at them at all until yesterday. It's a whole new world!

OK, my blog is all caught up with the original one, now. You can see it at The Liberated Kitchen, Redux. Thanks for all your help! Now we'll see if I can keep it updated ;)

Shoot. So I misunderstood this thread and thought links to my site from a BLOG post would be ok. I pasted all my blogs in from my editor on my (wordpress) site and tediously changed it all to bbcode and removed every link and picture from amazon, and now I'm in big trouble because most of my posts has links to other posts from my blog (like they do on the real site). I now have to go in there and figure out what the new link to the blog here would be, and then change them all. This is really, really annoying. Hope my little rant saves someone else the trouble. Grrrrrrr. Almost in tears. Sigh. Why do I even bother.

Do you all think I'm some annoying spammer? I'm not just pretending to be a celiac mommy so I can sell stuff. Geesh.

And my post about my facebook page was removed, which I find weird, because this site has the facebook feature built in. WTF.

Sorry. :( We're trying to figure out what would be the most reasonable way to do this without allowing loopholes that would let people run their business from this site. Just hang on a bit longer, OK? We are trying to come up with a fair plan.

That makes sense. I'm sorry I got bent out of shape. I can prevent backlinks from new posts on the blog. Going back and fixing the old ones is just daunting.

Do you do any scripting? It wouldn't be very difficult to write a perl script with some regular expressions that strips out the back links. Also there are a LOT of perl scrips kicking around the web that convert HTML to BBcode and back that you might find handy.

      Help I’m cross contaminating myself,

      By Rogol72 · Posted

      @klmgarland, My dermatitis herpetiformis didn't clear up until I became meticulous about cross contamination. I cut out gluten-free oats and all gluten-free foods, dairy and gluten-free rice. Additionally, getting the right amount of protein for my body weight helped significantly in my body's healing process ... along with supplementing with enough of all the vitamins and minerals ... especially Zinc and Magnesium. I went from 70kg to 82kg in a year. Protein with each meal 3 times daily, especially eggs at breakfast made the difference. I'm not sure whether iodine was a problem for me, but I can tolerate iodine no problem now. I'm off Dapsone and feel great. Not a sign of an itch. So there is hope. I'm not advocating for the use of Dapsone, but it can bring a huge amount of relief despite it's effect on red blood cells. The itch is so distracting and debilitating. I tried many times to get off it, it wasn't until I implemented the changes above and was consistent that I got off it. Dermatitis Herpetiformis is horrible, I wouldn't wish it on anyone.

      By klmgarland · Posted

      Thank you so very much Scott.  Just having someone understand my situation is so very helpful.  If I have one more family member ask me how my little itchy skin thing is going and can't you just take a pill and it will go away and just a little bit of gluten can't hurt you!!!! I think I will scream!!

      Help I’m cross contaminating myself,

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      It is difficult to do the detective work of tracking down hidden sources of cross-contamination. The scenarios you described—the kiss, the dish towel, the toaster, the grandbaby's fingers—are all classic ways those with dermatitis herpetiformis might get glutened, and it's a brutal learning curve that the medical world rarely prepares you for. It is difficult to have to deal with such hyper-vigilance. The fact that you have made your entire home environment, from makeup to cleaners, gluten-free is a big achievement, but it's clear the external world and shared spaces remain a minefield. Considering Dapsone is a logical and often necessary step for many with DH to break the cycle of itching and allow the skin to heal while you continue your detective work; it is a powerful tool to give you back your quality of life and sleep. You are not failing; you are fighting an incredibly steep battle. For a more specific direction, connecting with a dedicated celiac support group (online or locally) can be invaluable, as members exchange the most current, real-world tips for avoiding cross-contamination that you simply won't find in a pamphlet. You have already done the hardest part by getting a correct diagnosis. Now, the community can help you navigate the rest. If you have DH you will likely also want to avoid iodine, which is common in seafoods and dairy products, as it can exacerbate symptoms in some people. This article may also be helpful as it offers various ways to relieve the itch:

      My only proof

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      It's very frustrating to be dismissed by medical professionals, especially when you are the one living with the reality of your condition every day. Having to be your own advocate and "fight" for a doctor who will listen is an exhausting burden that no one should have to carry. While that 1998 brochure is a crucial piece of your personal history, it's infuriating that the medical system often requires more contemporary, formal documentation to take a condition seriously. It's a common and deeply unfair situation for those who were diagnosed decades ago, before current record-keeping and testing were standard. You are not alone in this struggle.

      Methylprednisone treatment for inflammation?

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      Methylprednisolone is sometimes prescribed for significant inflammation of the stomach and intestines, particularly for conditions like Crohn's disease, certain types of severe colitis, or autoimmune-related gastrointestinal inflammation. As a corticosteroid, it works by powerfully and quickly suppressing the immune system's inflammatory response. For many people, it can be very effective at reducing inflammation and providing rapid relief from symptoms like pain, diarrhea, and bleeding, often serving as a short-term "rescue" treatment to bring a severe flare under control. However, experiences can vary, and its effectiveness depends heavily on the specific cause of the inflammation. It's also important to be aware that while it can work well, it comes with potential side effects, especially with longer-term use, so it's typically used for the shortest duration possible under close medical supervision. It's always best to discuss the potential benefits and risks specific to your situation with your gastroenterologist.
