I was afraid you'd say that. I'm going to go track down a compute with that configuration so I can test against it. Stay tuned... – Kelly Abbott, on August 18, 2008 20:08

I'm a big mac fan too. I'll definitely call on you. – Kelly Abbott, on August 18, 2008 16:22

OK, so the first part (getting your Dandelife account to talk to your Flickr account) seems to be working. The second part, actually importing photo sets, is not. I am able to duplicate that bug too. Thanks for finding it for me! – Kelly Abbott, on August 18, 2008 16:21

I definitely see the double-spaces. Can I ask you what version of Word you're using? – Kelly Abbott, on August 18, 2008 16:16

Let me know if you ever need feedback from a Mac end-user about new or existing Dandelife features. I am passionate about the Mac and care about how the web and the Mac interoperate. – maclover, on August 16, 2008 16:55

A comment on the question "What can we do better?" in Dandelife:

One reason that I think the next/prev navigation is important is that not many people seem to view my photos individually (at least judging by the distinct lack of little icons of logged in users on my photo screens). I think if people could navigate those photos more quickly, they'd be more likely to view them. – maclover, on August 16, 2008 16:53

Yes, I see that screen, but when I select a set and click Import, I am returned to the http://dandelife.com/nosecrets view without any evidence that I can see of my set having been imported. – maclover, on August 16, 2008 16:50

OK, well, I'm not sure how to send you the file. If I can do that, or if there is some other way to help you to reproduce what I am seeing, let me know! I don't know whether seeing a blog entry would help, but here is my sample: http://dandelife.com/story/51686 – maclover, on August 16, 2008 16:45

It seems that my default font when I open up a new Word doc is Times New Roman 12 pt font. I created a sample file and pasted the contents. I got the same results -- double lines between paragraphs instead of single lines. I'm using Safari 3.1.2 on Mac OS X 10.5.4. If I can find a way to mail you the sample file I will. Otherwise, I'll ask you for suggestions about how to do so. – maclover, on August 16, 2008 16:41

That would be very cool! Thanks. – maclover, on August 16, 2008 16:34

I totally agree. :-) – Kelly Abbott, on August 16, 2008 04:44

http://www.flickr.com/photos/kga245/2767358982/ if you go to that link above, you'll see what I see (safari and firefox) for importing photos from flickr. Do you ever see a page like then when you try to import? – Kelly Abbott, on August 16, 2008 04:44

I tried copy-pasting from word (on a mac) and I got this: http://www.flickr.com/photos/kga245/2766508095/ Can you help me duplicate your problem more, please? – Kelly Abbott, on August 16, 2008 04:41

Maclover - I see what you mean. I hadn't noticed this before, but the link pop-up shows up blank when I use safari. I can fix that. <a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/kga245/2767346344/" title="Insert/edit link by kga245, on Flickr"><img src="http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3185/2767346344_9ceec39068.jpg" width="500" height="377" alt="Insert/edit link" /></a> – Kelly Abbott, on August 16, 2008 04:37

I love Dandelife. I just want it to be better on the Mac!

I've never been able to import a Flickr photo set in either Mac Safari or Mac FireFox. If I could do this, I would actually upgrade my Flickr account so that I could create sets. The photo to photo navigation is far superior (I assume, from what I've seen of others' photo collections) than the navigation from photo to photo on a story. Which reminds me... it would be nice to have better photo to photo navigation on photos that are included as part of a story (next/prev).

If you write a story in Mac MS Word and paste it into the story text box in Mac Safari, you get huge spaces between your paragraphs when you save the story. I've taken to using FireFox to post stories, even though I browse in Safari.
