Logged on this morning to write this blog and I couldn't get into "NEW" blogger at all. I have uploaded all this weeks pics to that service and cannot access the dashboard and thus all my drafts are inaccessable. Forced me to go back to "OLD" blogger and reload all of todays images a second time.

Sent the error code to support@blogger.com and have yet to receive a response.
