Just tried again:

imageloop: failed due to 50:imagelooop.PermissionDeniedException . Will be re-tried at 2008-10-16 20:19:59.0.

Blogger uploads are still failing. Lots of these errors:

img_0023.jpg from p3basic to Blogger on 2008-10-08 10:50:20.0 failed to upload due to 13:Database Error)

Not sure where the point of failure is, though - and the @destination is still thoroughly confusing. :)

Hey Jacob,

Thanks for the response.

My list of Blogger blogs, by default, are Displaying "www" for many of 'em - which makes it difficult to figure out which is which.

That, and... I'm still rather lost by your @destination conventions. It's kinda confusing. :)

Chris replied on October 07, 2008 17:11 to the problem ""Add a Blog" Doesn't Work" in Pixelpipe:

I was trying to add a "MetaWeblog" blog, which I'm confident 99% of your users wouldn't understand. :) WordPress 2.5 via an XML-RPC call. What's odd is that the form through the "MetaWeblog" credentials page worked fine (without direction, which is sorely lacking throughout the site). I couldn't figure out the convention for Atom, FWIW.

I know you guys are just starting out, but that's the reason I'm giving so much of my time and attention to you - I've been waiting for a service like this for a while.

Now, while I'm on the subject of the MetaWeblog publishing action, might I note that it did work for me through chris.pirillo.com - albeit, with some hiccups:

1. Title wasn't used as the title, but added to the description of the post.

2. Tags didn't map at all.

3. There's no way to set up a default category.

4. There's no way to define a default thumbnail size to be posted, nor did it the thumbnail link off to the original image on the blog. This may very well be a local setting, but...

Chris marked one of Jacob's replies in Pixelpipe as useful. Jacob replied to the problem "Facebook App (Connection) Doesn't Work".

I didn't get that far - was still testing in different browsers, OSes. Then, suddenly, on my main machine, it just connected after clicking the button on-site (though I seemed to stay on-site, within Pixelpipe.com). I suppose the matter is closed?

New version is now out, according to Brett (in an email sent to me a few minutes ago):

Brett told me (via email) that this is going to be fixed tonight.

Twitpic just Duped a single Image Upload

Twitpic just published one of my photo uploads twice. http://twitpic.com/exky and http://twitpic.com/exkk - could be a bug in your uploader or in Twitpic, but for that particular photo upload (via the Uploadr desktop tool on OS X), this seems to be the only destination that duplicated.

Links to Services on the Credentials Pages Would Be Helpful

You might want to add a link to the sign-up pages for each service when one goes to add them as a Pipe. Otherwise, the user has to go to the destination and find it themselves. Even a simple hyperlink to the site would suffice (target _blank, though).

Chris replied on October 06, 2008 23:49 to the problem "Difficult to determine which pipes have been added" in Pixelpipe:

Yeah, digging one level deeper doesn't help the situation - this is a rather massive usability issue. There's no simple way of telling what's been added on the "Add Pipes" screen, and sending people to "My Pipes" without a direct comparison tool is rather... kludgey, at best.

This *IS* a problem. :)

Imageloop Permission Denied?

Could be a temporary system issue, but twice I've seen: "imageloop: failed due to 50:imagelooop.PermissionDeniedException . Will be re-tried at 2008-10-06 22:15:14.0." I know I have the proper credentials input.

The error, interestingly enough, has "imagelooop" - an extra 'o' in there, but I don't know if that's a typo on their end or Pixelpipe's?

Blogger.com Uploads Aren't Working

The Blogger settings are a bit confusing. Moreover, I added http://l0ckergn0me.blogspot.com/ and the uploader claims to have published there, but nothing has shown up.

"Add a Blog" Doesn't Work

No matter what I try, my own blog doesn't seem to get added to the destinations list. I get redirected to that page after I enter my info, but no particular error.

Facebook App (Connection) Doesn't Work

I'm in a recursive loop (through either Firefox 3.0 or Safari 3.x on Mac OS X) when trying to add the Facebook app directly from the Pixelpipe "add" page. As it stands, I can't seem to get my photos published to my Facebook account automatically.
