I have be...Hi Pancake Ninja, Thanks for visiting. I have been blogging since 2006--and as you can tell, I have alot of followers and receive many comments. <br /><br />There's not much difference in the Pop-Up or the Fullpage options. BUT--the embedded one (where you put a comment in a box at the end of your blog) takes alot longer for someone to make a comment on... Since I visit about 50+ blogs most every day, I am always looking for ways to make the task quicker and easier... <br /><br />The embedded form is harder --especially if the blogger makes us to the word verification. <br /><br />It was just a personal choice of mine... You can do whatever you wish--and whatever you like... BUT--since you are new, I would try all of the options and see what works best for you. I personally use the Pop-up window...<br /><br />Thanks again for coming to my blog... Come back anytime.<br />Hugs,<br />BetsyBetsy Banks Adamshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16223591156634767330noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3915113069723845995.post-56944292384917915692011-03-31T19:07:24.470-05:002011-03-31T19:07:24.470-05:00Can you explain more on why the first two options ...Can you explain more on why the first two options are better?

Somehow your blog didn't get transferred to my new reader when I switched 'personas' from storyteller to 'happily retired gal' but it's fixed now and I'll catch up bit by bit as time permits. <br /><br />I love the pretty flowers in your header. As for the comment thing ... I'm with you on this one. I've tried them all but use the pop-up box these days because it provides the best options from my perspective. Seems like someone in comments mentioned it causes problems for Firefox users but I've used Firefox for years and haven't noticed problems with option 2. Thanks for putting the word out there. <br /><br />I would add a request for YOU and others to consider. If you choose 'ANYONE' (even anonymous users) ... it gives folks like me who have multiple Blogger sites to enter the actual link to a specific post. I've used it for years with minimal hassles. I delete anonymous comments as a matter of course when they show up in email. In addition (on the same 'settings page' for comments down near the bottom), I set 'comment moderation' for posts older than 3 days. This helps me monitor OLD comments ... rejecting SPAM from email before it shows up. <br />Hugs and blessings,storytellerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14101550406171982090noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3915113069723845995.post-72868002506626912132010-02-08T00:18:59.447-06:002010-02-08T00:18:59.447-06:00not sure about the comment thing but will check. ...not sure about the comment thing but will check. <br /><br />we're hockey fans in this house but i wanted to see the tebow commerical. i ended up watching it online. <br /><br />i am a huge masterpiece theater fan and tonight was the conclusion of "emma" a three part series. <br />happy february.marmeehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00622899170079254810noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3915113069723845995.post-42726297380906942872010-02-07T18:41:40.792-06:002010-02-07T18:41:40.792-06:00Hi Betsy,

I'm going with the pop up since I don't like the full page. I've had it on my list of things to do on the blogs for awhile but keep forgetting. I also wish everyone would get rid of the word verification, it is a pain. <br /><br />The Super Bowl is one of the few football games we watch and I usually root for the underdog. <br /><br />Hugs,<br />JudySquirrelQueenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00634513897599275287noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3915113069723845995.post-10029503336906280572010-02-07T01:18:22.900-06:002010-02-07T01:18:22.900-06:00Hi Betsy!

They have had a bad year. A change in coaches and then all the experienced players left when their contracts ended.
