Can not post image to Blogger when previously I could.

There was an error posting this event to the blog

timed out

Please verify the blog configuration

In order to post photos to Blogger, you MUST set up your Picasa account. Log in with your Blogger username and password at picasaweb.google.com

I last posted an image to my Blogger blog on August 9. I tried to post an image last night and today and got the message above. I can post a text message to Blogger but not an image.

I have the latest version of LifeCast loaded on my Iphone and the latest Iphone updates.

I can access picasaweb via my computer and in the browser on my Iphone.

My blog configuration test is successful.

The image I am trying to post came directly from the Iphone camera.

    Thanks for the detailed information.

    If the error reported is 'timed out' then this could indicate either a local problem with your network connection, or perhaps a problem with the picasa servers. I have experienced something similar in the past, and it started working again a few hours later.

    What was your connection when you attempted this ? Were you on WiFi, 3G, EDGE or GRPS ? That list goes from best -> worst in terms of speed. It's perfectly possible that attempting to post an image over EDGE or GPRS will end in a time-out because you're sending a lot of data over a slow network connection.

    Keep trying it out, and if you are still having problems in a day or so let us know. Also, try re-confirming your settings.

    Unfortunately these kinds of problems are very difficult for us to track down, because there's just so many variables, most of which are beyond our control, but we'll do our best to help.
