moved back onto my ubuntu box and managed to get a application for everything i need infact there is more than enough apps for my every requirement. Ive found one hole > blogging software I tried all the apps available probably the best i found was drivel but drivel was very limited, i found blogilo which looked what i required and even looked like it had the feature to even add a picture! which all the other never the others never even had the option to add a link unless you knew how to code html which everybody doesnt im sure. QTM again looked promising but wouldnt conect and even if it did i can see it has image links again you cant just drop on or upload a image. BlogGTK looks great and the layout was just what i was looking for but again you cant upload a image grrr!

Quamana ubuntu

So ive had to install java and currently running quamana which i used to use on my mac and at least you can upload a image and has all the other features i need so although its not native it does what is required for serious bloggers. If your running ubuntu just go into the app store and run the openKDK runtime i installed version 7, unzip quamana and made the Quamana.sh executable if you dont use a terminal right click on in and properties and tick make executable box, from a terminal you would type chmod +x Quamana.sh then to run type > ./Quamana.sh and your away!!

so overall id say every blogging app for linux is pretty lame if you just want to input text happy days if you want media and pictures then im thinking there is a lack of good support in native blogging apps, i know there are apps that will plug into the browsers but im afraid i just like a native proper application.Tags: bloggtk, quamana, qtm, linux blog program, ubuntu blog gui, wordpress, ubuntu, drivel, blogilo
