Now that is the strangest way to post a picture. It doesn't make sense to me. It took me awhile to figure out that the picture has to be on a URL because my head was so jimmied around I couldn't grasp the concept. Once I understood it I immediately began my Comcast personal site so I could post the picture. New computer territory for me, NOT GOOD! LOL! For another day.

Speaking of computers, I'm going to wipe away my present C drive as it's full of garbage. A number of things don't work right and/or are slow. The biggest part as I see it now is making sure I have what I need off my C drive before I ghost it with a beautiful clean and crisp ghost. I've got 2 120 gig hard drives so space is no problem.

Yeah, there has already been a few things I've thought about about NOT putting in a book! A few names might have to be fictionalised for me to put it into the resolving of mysteries parts.

BTW, this is the best people search site I've found:

Problem is that almost all women change their names upon marriage so tracking them down after decades is mostly impossible.

Without going through a whole lot of and ifs or buts, I think the final conclusion of nobody's picture gets put up on the internet is practically the best conclusion. If a picture is put up on the internet is it considered public domain?

I wrote some rambling reply and must have flushed it. Drifted OT into my favorite subject.

At first, I couldn't understand how the linking process worked, but it just comes to you after awhile.

Do you have an ftp uploader? I just use that to upload a picture and don't bother with html. Do whatever works for you until you get the hang of it.

I need to scrub off a lot of junk to make more room. Always have been the type to hate to throw anything away :-). Also installed a backup 80 gig harddrive and am trying not to clutter it up.

The worst problem for me is that I had a shop transfer my files two different times after I got a new computer, once when I got hit by blaster and the second time I tried to rescue a few more files I missed when I had it in the shop to get a router for dsl. They copied over a lot of program junk along with it, and now I'm afraid to delete some of the stuff. I don't even know what it is. I only wanted text and picture files.

The upshot of that is anything you do, you have to know what you want and be very explicit. I even told them the folder name I wanted. Do you think I could even get that? Nooooo. I can easily rename it, but it makes you wonder if they even pay attention to everything I carefully wrote down. I think they assume I don't know anything. Admittedly there is a lot I don't know, but I know how folders and subfolders work, etc.

Did you get your picture working yet?
