What are some of your biggest blogging pet peeves?
One of mine is having the word verification box come up when you try to comment... mostly because it's SUCH a easy fix!
I also hate it when girls use their blog as a Pinterest board.

And I'm sure it depended on your screen resolution as well. I loved the design, but changed it quickly for the better of mankind.

Permalink Reply by Mayor Gia on December 22, 2011 at 10:23pm Oh I have SO many (some have already been listed).
1. Automatic music
2. No archive
3. No easy way to find information about blog - intro post or about me section or anything
4. Too many colors/pictures so that it's hard to concentrate on the words
I'm sure there's more, but I don't want to seem too bitchy...
Permalink Reply by Jena Roach on December 27, 2011 at 3:03pm Haha. Love all of these!
Permalink Reply by Jessica on January 14, 2012 at 6:24pm Agreed about no archive! It's especially annoying if they reference something from the past but provide no details, like, "after that really horrible thing that happened in April" and I have to hit "Older Posts -->" nine times just to figure out what the heck they're talking about.
Permalink Reply by Erin McCarthy on January 19, 2012 at 10:47am I'm a new blogger but I've been a blog reader for a while and I can't stand photo blogs that are literally a photo with a date and place ONLY because the photos look like there is so much more to the story and I feel like the person posting them can do so much with that! Isn't that the point of blogging anyway?
Maybe you guys should team up! I've seen some pretty good couples blogs like this.
Permalink Reply by Jena Roach on December 27, 2011 at 3:04pm Exactly. You NEED words. If you want to put pictures, update your Facebook photo album.
Exactly! Or do Pinterest if you're one of those 'post a picture of an abstract candy wrapper sitting on the beach glistining in the sun' type of people lol
*this is NOT a Pinterest slam as I feel that site may soon be one of my newest forms of procrastination ;)
