JC, what a sweet graphic! I should print it (with your beautiful frame), and send it to my grandaughters - all five of them! They can hang it by their bed for Sweet Dreams every night!

Just to jump in on yesterday’s conversation regarding Tinypic hacker. I have never had a graphic hacked at either Fotki or Photobucket.

A few years ago, I uploaded one or two graphics to Tinypic. I found it hard to use because I did not have a personal account.

Both Fotki and Photobucket have free accounts. I pay for accounts at both places. A paid account gives more space than the free account. Both have their advantages. You can edit your graphic online. I have not used this feature except to test the one on Photobucket. Both have the ability to create multiple folders ie: Amy’s Place; My Graphics; My backgrounds; My genealogy. Also, the graphic retains the name assigned when you saved it on your pc.

I find Photobucket easier to upload large amounts of graphics. Fotki may have improved their upload options but I haven’t tried it.

I have, on occasion, lost graphics on both Fotki and Photobucket. I do not know what causes this. After a few months, instead of the graphic, you get a message that the image has been deleted or moved. Hmmm ..... not by me! :) I have used an image in my header for several years without change. Last month, it disappeared. I re-uploaded but what I have on my pc is a little different than what I have used forever.

You may never get hit by another hacker on Tinypic but I like the ability to be able to organize my images all together.

Thanks for listening to my rant. :)

I did. Call my brother that is. Nick, the cop, is a rock and Mike the minister is a good person then I substituted the word sister and it fit wonderfully well, for my sister, the xray tech.

A warm day it won’t be here in Memphis, but temps are supposed to improve after today.

You raise me up

I tried three or four times yesterday to get a comment to "post" and finally gave up. :(

This is so pretty. I just love pictures with 'windows' and looking out at such a beautiful setting.

What a wonderful Pledge today, ladies! Just lovely...

Thanks, jaycee - we have so many pledge graphics from The Finest - I'm glad that Amy is using them here every month when she starts a new thread.

I wonder about the tinypic graphics sometimes, but it's so easy to just upload one there quickly and then forget about it because chances are, the next time you want to use a graphic you've already posted, you can just upload it again!

You know they HAVE to delete them at some point because many of our old ones no longer work. Just doesn't seem like the same file name would be reused, but I do remember you, Meg, saying that one of yours from a while ago was a completely different picture than the one you had uploaded.

Kinda scary when the same file name is used for more than one file.

Also remember someone at FR a long time ago was banned (or left in a huff) and she replaced virtually all her graphics posted on FR threads with some pretty filthy stuff. I think JimRob had to delete all her posts.

Thank you, yorkie, and I also love the Robert Frost poem with that black and white photo of the old window and the objects placed on that window seat.

Thank you, jaycee, and please don’t think that you CAN’T post your beautiful beach picture with snow falling this summer! LOL! We were just talking about using our remaining winter/snow opening graphics THIS week and then “Think Spring” beginning next week. :)

My Brother Is So Smart

Yep! That's what my brother and I have been saying for many years. ;^) ...and each of us has always claimed "I'm the better looking one."

Thanks, kitty. I wish I had gotten to see the goodnight pic you posted the other night but it was already gone when I posted yesterday's opening.

I wanted to ask if it was a picture that you had uploaded a long time ago, or was it a recent one? So it seems that someone is able to hack into the tinypic server and replace one picture with another? A very cheap shot. :(

Now that reflection is outstanding! I’m guessing it was manipulated, but it’s still gorgeous! ;) Love the Oscar Wilde poem as well as the illustration.

How very ugly that was!! She certainly isn't needed, is she?

Like I told someone yesterday, I have all of mine here in my files and I've been using tinypic for 3 years now and have not had 1 minute of trouble. I will continue doing what I'm doing and not worry about it. I told Kitty yesterday if anything pornographic shows up from any of us, that everyone knows it doesn't come from us. We have a beautiful place here and post lovely things! None of us should worry.

Thank you, yorkie! I stopped to do a graphic supporting Billie’s theme today.

And I really like it when you do that! Enjoy seeing how you all find such neat additions to the openings so quickly.
