So I'm trying to visit blogs and keep getting an almost blank white screen with the same old message:
Service Unavailable
Error 503
Does anyone else get this when you try to visit a blog? It's been happening a lot to me for the last couple of months, and I assume it's to do with the code for the new Blogger interface (don't you love it when they "improve" things?)
Anyway, I've found that if you simply refresh the page, the blog will load fine. Bit annoying to have to keep doing this but at least there is a way round the problem.
Hope you like the little clip art piccie, it's how the computer makes me feel sometimes, lol. Feel free to save it and use it if you like it, it's free from clker.com
-------------------------------------------------
Edit: I've been getting this error message as I've been leaving comments too but the comment still gets published. Just click your 'Back' button to get the blog to display again, and then refresh.....your comment should now be displaying.
What a palaver! I suppose they'll never fix it grrrrrrrrr. Have a good weekend all.

It's happened to me a few times. Like you said, hitting refresh seems to work...
Yes it is happening more frequently now...so annoying.xxx
Hiya Carole, I keep getting that message too, it's bloomin' frustrating, especially when so many people have left me a comment lately I want to repay the visit, I think I shall have to spend a few hours tomorrow catching up and hopefully it WILL work. Enjoy your Sunday, Hugs Teresa xx
Hi Carole yes it has been happening a lot to me as well I normally press the back button which sometimes rectifies it....but not always, lol.

Yup!! Happening here too... two or three attempts gets you there, but seriously FRUSTRATING! Hope they fix it soon. Love the clipart Donna ☺
I thought it was just me!!!! I actually got this message when I tried to open your blog... Jo x
Hi Carole, it's me again. Thank you for your wonderful comment on my ladybug cards. I am so pleased that you get inspiration from my gallery, it makes it all worthwhile. I just bought a Crafts Too winter scene embossing folder last week but haven't used it yet. I have had the Sissix one for years :o)
Yes... I've been getting it too! Grrrrr....! Love 'n' hugs, Mel xx
Bummer Carole! Computers are so great when they work like they should, then they go and try to make things better and all he-- breaks loose! Sorry you are having a problem. So far this hasn't happened to me, but ya never know. . . It could attack me at any time!!! Hope all is well and that you are starting to get some nice weather. It's HOT here, 103 degrees today, I hate it! I want my island!!! Hugs, J:)
Hi Carole! I just wanted to say thank you for your help with my blogger issues - I visited the page you suggested and apparently I've used 60% of my allowance so there should be plenty of space left. Hopefully you're right and I just got the message in error. Thanks for your help! Love 'n' hugs, Mel xx
Not had a problem so far Carole, fingers crossed...NOW...how did you make a blinkie and was it an idiot proof tute, as thats what I would need...lol.....
