We'll get the pictures upload bit sorted tomorrow for you! Obviously, none of the suggestions I made were any good? My favourite: Pictures \| Towns \| Attractions

Then give it a name or number followed by "jpg". That way you keep your original photo and have one that you can post. I usualy make my photos 12 inches along the longest side and 72 pixels per inch. That way they will not be too big for this site. Hope that helps. Pleased to meet you by the way. Edited by: Peter Evans at:17th May 2009 13:17 My favourite: Pictures \| Towns \| Attractions
