Thanks, these are off the net. I don't know how to get my own photos onto the site. I know I E mailed you some ages ago; that seems easy by comparison.

It's all about Photobucket Mike.  ;D  Even I managed it...and this is telling indeed.

http://imageshack.us/ - once you've browsed, located the file and clicked "host it" (ignore the "resize" and other tick box options), the next page will offer a range of urls in boxes, some with forum code attached - to get the image url that can be directly linked, go to the bottom box titled "Direct link to image" - once copied, it should work inside the forum's image tags.

Looks like where I lived, in Somerville, Mass.



      Would it be OK if I pitilessly condemned your house?

      Not really.....it's a nice house.  ;)

      My house, on the other hand, really is kind of junky. It was built in 1960. It's aesthetically deficient to an alarming degree. :D

I have been onto the site, but I don't seemt o be able to get anything uploaded onto it. Apart from being stupid, I have had the same problems with both photobucket and the Cannon site. The latter just keeps telling me my registration details are wrong. I seem fated not to get the hang of this issue.

Could you check the filetypes you are trying to upload? You can find it by right clicking the file, going to properties, and it will say at the top of the list (also mention the filesize of an average one, as some sites also have size restrictions). They may be bmp or raw files which need to be compressed to jpeg before a site will accept them. If that isn't the problem, I'm a little stumped :P

Yes, it is easy, for I am as clumsy with these things as your average grandpa, but I did it anyway with a little help from my friends. ;D

Last night, we had some rain turn into a couple of inches of snow - don't get much of the stuff in North Carolina, but I'm off today & took a few early AM pics of the house - roads are perfectly clear (my favorite combination!) - will be sunny & up into the 50s by the afternoon, so most of the snow will be gone by tonight - I spent the first 25 yrs of my life in Michigan, so this is the kind of winter I like now -  ;)

This is what it's been like in my neck of the woods lately. These are from last weekend.

Right now the 6ft wide alley leading to our house has narrowed to less than 2 and the feeling is like being in the trenches in the Marne, 1915.

And more snow is coming... :o

Would you post a picture of the alley?

George & Sarge - thanks for the comments on the 'snowy' pics - sorry about not moving the car for Greg, but I was retrieving the newspapers in my pajamas, and the 'chill factor' hurried me on w/ the task!  :)

My favorite time is the spring - can't tell w/ the snow, but some of those trees are dogwoods & crepe myrtles, and the bushes nearer the house are azaleas & rhododendrons (along w/ a few others) - it is beautiful @ that time -  :)

You'll have to give us a picture then, Dave.
