    Those are cracking images....... what camera are you using?

    Sorry, should have added in your other thread - if you resize an image for heaven's sake save it as a copy, using File > Save As and give it a different filename (I usually just add a 1 to the original filename). That way, you have your original from the camera, plus a smaller copy!

    My Inverness pic is 600 X 800 pixels if that helps any. Reduced from
    1728 X 2304 which is what the camera setting appears to be.

    Forgot to mention, I load my pics for the forum into photobucket, then get the url to use. No idea if that process changes the size at all.

    What problem do you have with photobucket? I use it daily, using either the urls or imgs depending on which forum I'm on at the time. Its easy to me and never a spot of trouble.

    The garden pic is lovely, Katarina! Is it your garden, by any chance?

    Katerina, what are the blue flowers? I'm building a house just now and the plot it's on has suddenly erupted with just that flower:




    Thanks!

    I honestly don't know. They were growing in Stroma, and looked pretty good. Might go back and pinch a root!

    Wikipedia (a woman's best friend) to the rescue!

    The bonnie blue flowers are indeed a type of Delphinium - Delphinium Elatum, to be exact. The other name is Candle Larkspur.
