The Submit Blog in the navbar is the same title that is at the bottom of the blog entry that you are using when you want to click on Transmit when you done.

My recommendation it to change the one at the bottom of the blog from SUBMIT BLOG to TRANSMIT BLOG or something a little different.

I think "Submit X" works fine.

I know I can figure this out because I have been a VB user for longer then I can remember.

The only reason I mentioned it was because the use of this software on my site will bring in a lot more user to my web site. I can see my web site doubling in the next year if not sooner.

Anyways I brought this up because I have been writing up documentation for using the journals on my web site for the past two days and when I was explain in the documentation to users that they has to click on the Submit Journal key when they were done typing in their journal and I was looking at the page as I was typing this and realized that there were two links that said Submit Journal on that page. One is at the bottom under the message and the other is in the journal navbar. If they read the directions where I tell them to click on the Submit Journal after they have typed in their journal and if it is a long journal and they click on the Submit Journal in the navbar then they will lose everything that just typed. I am sure that will piss them off.

That was why I was thinking this might be better to change the one under the message to something like "Transmit X" or some other wording.

It was just a suggestion.

Maybe just carefully wording it to say "Hit the Submit Journal *button* below the area you typed in your message" would work?
