Thommo, can you tell me the difference in your Posting procedures please ?

Your last 2 Pics. I can see as clear as a bell, but the one you Posted for us to guess at, I just got the Red cross in the box.  Still can't see it. 

JRH,  I can see yours.

Wish I knew what was going on.

Cheers,
Sheba.

Thanks Sheba,
Don't know why you can't view my photo's - obviously some people can.
All I do is tick the "Attach Image(s)" box, which brings up a browse button. This opens the photo's I have stored - I then select a photo, then bingo, it just happens!
Now I may well be doing it incorrectly of there may be an easier way - if so, please let me know. I am certainly no wizzard on these things!

To jules47, well done on Kalbarri, you beat me to it!

As a matter of interest, the War Memorial at Kalbarri was designed and built by a friend of mine, a Mr Cliff Ross. He also started the feeding of the pelicans on the river front for the benifit of the tourists. The National Park Rangers do the feeding now.

I just don't understand why I can see some, and not others.  That's why I thought you had 2 different ways of posting them.

Cheers,
Sheba.

G'day Sheba,
I do it exactly the same way as Thommo, you must remember you are dealing with a computer and it will do exactly what it wants to do just to frustrate it's owner, I know mine does.

And I suppose they wonder why we feel like putting an axe through them sometimes, hey ?

I can see them all, no problems here except for Thommo's extra large ones that mean I have to scroll sideways a bit.
I am involved in a photo forum where people also do that even when they have been told not to. So annoying I won't go back in till it turns the page.

Ok, agree it can be a bit of a problem to scroll sideways (although not a huge worry I would have thought!)
Therefore I would appreciate it if you or anyone else can show me how to post them smaller.

I reduce all my photos on my computer before I upload them to any forums thommo. Hope that helps. With mine I do it through Paint.
Right click on the photo click on paint, when it opens you will find a box saying 100 in resize. I reduce that back to 30 and save.

I hope you lot are guessing at my pic of the tree & if so it's none of the places mentioned above though I'm not sure what T.I. stands for Sheba.

Cheers
Jon

ps:  pleeeese Bill12 try not to post a pic till you guess someone elses first as it gets confusing having more than one photo going at a time.

T.I. is Thursday Island.   And we're talking about the Church at the moment.

Cheers,

Don't know what's going on, but I don't always land on the latest page when I click on for this site.

Can any-one enlighten me as to the reason ?   Yes I have ticked the newest first box.

Also, why has the page width changed ?  Very annoying.

Cheers,
Sheba.

Not sure why Bill12 posted the church pic but it confuses things.
What I have to do to have the newest post turn up first is to bookmark the particular thread with 'the newest first' selected.
Page width is a mystery unless you have selected zoom in your browser if you have it (Firefox does but not sure about Internet Explorer)

Cheers
Jon

Don't know the name of the church, but would it belong to one of the communities north of Broome?

You are all wrong so far, and on the wrong side of the continent. I have pick one before, if that is the problem.Hint- Its on an aboriginal settlement, and has something to do with Charles Darwin.Thommo,s getting close.Sorry Sheba , if you think I have hijacked your post.

Hylda&Johns photo of the tree is the officail photo for now. and I guess the page has widened because people keep putting up stretched photos.

This thread is not being at all successful because no one is following the rules. For goodness sake get it right or forget the whole thing.
Bill you did not get the last one right so it is not your turn.
I am speaking out as so fed up with trying to follow this thread with so many people putting up photos when it is not their turn.
