(It looks like you picked a tulip to send to me.)

Hehehe. Yep. A tulip from Tulip.

Today, I've been working on getting some more of my stuff packed up. Most of my stuff is already packed from when I moved from school 3 months ago (I never bothered to unpack 3/4 of my stuff), so there isn't a whole lot to do. I have also been trying to finish up my summer independent study project and working on my class notes for when I start teaching. I'm moving one week from today. I'm looking forward to going back, but the moving is going to be a pain!

[PreviouslyA-Lurker]

Will you be moving into an apt. or a dorm?

How far will you have to travel (hours)?

Moving IMO is always a pain, no matter how far you have to move, even if is just across the street. (Of course the longer or futher one has to travel the bigger deal the moving is.)

FReepmail and pings only count if you're logged in.

I hope I'm logged in. LOL! :-)

I don't know how to post graphics or pictures

To post a picture, you just need to have one that's already on a website. I'd try to make up pictures of my own, but I don't have a site to host any. But if you want to post something like the pictures on 123greetings.com, you just need to right click on the picture itself. A list of options will come up, and at the bottom of the list you will see "Properties". Click on "Properties" and a new box will come up. It will give the Address (URL) of the picture and the dimensions of the picture. You will need the second number given for dimensions (this is the height).

Then in the box you are typing the post on FR, you type < IMG SRC="url" height="pixel"> except you don't have a space in between the < and IMG. You then copy and paste the Address (URL) where the url is in the code, and you put the second number from the dimensions where pixel is at. Then preview your post to make sure it's working out.

For example, the code that I posted for the happy birthday post was

< IMG SRC="http://img.123greetings.com/eventsnew/birth_wishes/1008-001-128-1060.gif" height="358">

-- only there was no space between < and IMG.

I hope this helps!

I'm moving into an apartment. Same apartment complex, but a different apartment (I wanted one on the second floor instead of the ground level this time.) And school is 6 hours south of where I'm at now, but still in IL. It's a loooooooong drive.

I have to go offline for a while. I'll be back later. But if I don't get back before you have to go, I hope the rest of your birthday is wonderful!

I tried posting a picture from C.G. instructions to you the other day and got a red x. I tried several things, even tried to find instructions posted elsewhere on the web. Couldn't figure it out. I'll try yours.

Thank you!
