I tried to upload a picture for the ad...., what ever you call it, so don't have a clue.

It's the right size, is there anyway of showing a picture without Flickr or potobucket becauce I am in neither and no desire to be.

I just love to show my boys.

As you might quess I have no idea of computers and lingo so please explain in very basic english with no jagon since I tought my self how to use the computer and the net.

Thanks for any advise you can give

Love visions

Uploading the pic dosen't work. Put it up at www.photobucket.com (or something similar) then link it.

Hey visions (welcome by the way!), I wrestled with this bloody avatar thing for a while too. I'm totally computer illiterate and a lunchbucket like me was eventualy able to do this. You need to use photobucket (a free service) or some place similar in order to link your picture(s) with this site. Once you upload your photo to photobucket, it will give you a designated URL address that can be copied and then pasted in your profile on this site. Just make sure you paste it into the bottom window called "Link to off-site avatar". Hope this works for you. 8)

Hi Mrs.G, I do have a larger version of this that I have stored on photobucket and on my own pc. I scanned the original from a book I bought 20 years ago (yikes, I feel old now!) that I would gladly share with you and anyone else. I'm not to savy with computer related things but if you give me an email address to send it to I will do my best. Cheers! :D

Wow! We do have some good SC pix around here these days. I have one or two in the hopper I've been meaning to scan in as well.

Folks, www.imageshack.us works well also and in addition to being totally free, you don't even have to log in or have an account (a real plus for me, since I hate keeping up with login info...)

All this avatar talk has made me give in. So many choices though...

My email is at the bottom of my posts, and thank you! Oh if anyone else wants to send me any, that would be cool.
