“The Colour Blue” is the theme for this week Sunday Stamps
Bulgaria – 1985 Morning Glory (ipomoea)
Switzerland – 1962 Leaves on Tree EUROPA
Japan – 1968 Daisies
France – 1949 Abbey of Saint Wandrille
Italy – 1946 Hand panting an olive tree – Series: Democracy
Austria – 1968 Dragon fountain in Klagenfurt. Klagenfurt, on the eastern shore of Lake Wörthersee, is the capital city of the southern Austrian province of Carinthia. Its emblem is the Lindwurm, a winged dragon, of which there is a fountain on the main square, Neuer Platz.
Ireland – 1923 The Cross of Cong was made in 1123 to encase a fragment of the True Cross that was brought to Ireland and displayed in different places around the country. The cross is so-called because it was kept in the Augustinian Friary at Cong, county Mayo, for centuries.
Love to see so many shades of blue! Especially the “vintage” stamps (the planting of the olive tree would be my favourite).
I was about to upload de Japanese daisies for today 😀
I replied to the comment you posted on Joy’s blog, because it was funny (about the letter deliverer stamp), but my comment is not showing right after your comment, so it seems I am a weirdo by commenting “you are funny!” after a post on stamps 😳
I contacted WordPress in regard to comments from blogspot. Here is their response. Not sure if it shelfful 🙂 Feel free to delete this comment after you read it…
Hello there,
I am wondering why people from blogspot cannot leave comments with a name linked to their blogs. They end up having to sign their name in the comment for me to recognize them, which it is very annoying to them.
What can be done to solve this?
Thank you for reaching out to us. I understand how important it is for your visitors to easily leave comments and be recognized on your site.
Since Blogger (Blogspot) and WordPress.com are different platforms, visitors from Blogger would need to sign into their WordPress.com account to leave a comment with their name linked to their profile. This is because WordPress.com and Blogger use different systems for managing user identities and comments.
If your visitors do not have a WordPress.com account, they can still leave a comment by filling in the comment field, but unfortunately, their names won’t automatically link back to their Blogger blogs. Encouraging them to sign their names within their comments, as you’ve mentioned, is a good workaround for now.
We’re always looking for ways to improve the experience on WordPress.com, so I’ll make sure to pass your feedback to our development team. It might not lead to immediate changes, but user feedback is a big part of how we decide on future improvements.
If you have any other questions or need further assistance, please don’t hesitate to ask.
