  • That's something that really drives me crazy about language.  To me, French is the most beautiful language in the world and I can sympathize with the French for having their language chosen 2nd International language.  I would guess that, while the French invented spying, their subterfuge was just not up to snuff when the primary language was chosen.  Anyway, back to what drives me crazy about language.  I haven't a clue what English sounds like to someone who doesn't speak the language.  I have a hard time believing it's nearly as beautiful to llsten to as French or Italian, while I doubt it's as machine-gunny as Japanese or German sound to me or as hyper-stressed as Chinese sounds to me.

    I feel I should point out the error that the Amy Winehouse lookie/likey in the middle lane has made in that she is gonna get one hell of a wind resistance off that beehive style 'do.

    Maybe the back of the beehive hair is aerodynamically shaped, like Chris Hoy's helmet.

    Still having difficulties uploading photos and because im driving myself mad with moaning about it (let alone other people!) then if this doesnt work I officially GIVE UP lol! I still cant copy an URL of a photo in my Flickr collection into the Insert Image box, nothing happens. So Im just wondering if the URL in this text box provides a link? If it does, then a piccy of my 2 mutts should appear, if not , .....well (slams door and goes off in a huff)......
    :-?

  • I took it out cos it linked to my whole photo collection! 
    a) It could incriminate me (!!!!)
    b) It could bore anyone senseless
    c) Most likely - knowing me - it could nuke the whole Message Board. I have had that effect on photocopiers and i can set off ASDA alarms just by walking IN the door. Which puzzles the security guards.

    Hey Kat. Don't give up. If you got that far, you did everything right except you picked the wrong link on the Flickr page. If you do it as Flickr recommend, and use the 'share' button and copy the link from there, you get a link to your whole photo stream. If you look at the post I did above, with the dog dressed as Yoda, that is the way I have found works. You click on the you want in your photo stream, click the 3 circles icon on the right, from that page click 'Download/view all sizes', then click 'view all sizes', click 'medium' and that brings up a version of your photo. Right click on it and the click' copy picture location'. That is the one you paste into your post and that will just copy in that one picture.
    If necessary, we will do this by screen grab pictures.
