Got it....now how did you make those icons border your pic?

Just click and drag, Bill. You can put them anywhere you want.

She looks a lot like Kate Bush!

She does, yes. The summer sun brings out the auburn highlights in her hair. She looks even more like Kate then.

How you sorcerers succeed in transposing images from your desktop (or PC) on the web?

1 ) Press 'Prt Sc' (or 'Print Screen') button on your IBM -compatible keyboard

2 ) Open an image editor program which supports .BMP files

3 ) Ctrl+V will put the image into your editor program

4 ) Save it somewhere on your computer (your desktop, perhaps?)

5 ) Go to www.photobucket.com asnd register for a free account

6 ) Upload your file to their servers

7 ) Click once on the [img] box beneath your picture - this automatically copies the correct code

8 ) Paste this code into your GMG post.


And that's all there is to it. :)

3) Ctrl+V will put the image into your editor program

4) Resize it to a managable dimension. Save it somewhere on your computer (your desktop, perhaps?)

5)When posting click on Additional Options and choose the file to be embedded to your post



And that's all there is to it. :)

On a visit to the Hudson River valley, we saw these endearing roadside signs, and Maria agreed to pose rustically, yet gracefully . . . .




What a beauty!

Mark, we did this a year ago. I still have the same desktop (a pic of Mrs. Rock). Like my avatar, things seldom change  ;D

My girl has me completely addicted to everything Disney and practically anything full of bright,Rainbow colors. The whole scheme (you should see our apartment...Barbie HEAVEN!) just tends to make me feel better.

Great picture, Karl. Love it.  8)

And it's always a pleasure to see the lovely Maria.

And when you save the image to your desktop (or wherever), save as a jpeg. That'll get the file size down to something reasonable. BMPs are HUGE.
