Topic: Places

I'm trying to post images from my pc. Seems impossible to do it simply.

Re: Places

I’m afraid I haven’t yet found out how to avoid the two-stage process of adding an image as an attachment and then embedding it in a post. Anyway, thanks for sharing that lovely photo!

Re: Places

More USA scenery - Monument valley - Arizona & Utah.
It's where cowboys ride endlessly through the desert in the movies.  It was used cleverly in Stagecoach

Taken on our Golden Wedding Anniversary trip. I've got loads of pictures - on a Canon Ixus 60 camera.

ps, I wonder why this picture has come out so small. Where is the best place to adjust its size?

That looks lovely, Jack. It sounds like some Golden Wedding Anniversary you had.  https://punster.me/images/smile.gif

Then if I do a left click, as is normal, and by hard to break habit, the picture will display in a large size, from which page I can't recover - see earlier remarks.

There seems to be no reverse navigation - working backwards through the selection and display process

Re: Places

Karen, yes it was a most enjoyable tour of the western states - taking in some of California, Arizona , Utah, Nevada, the Grand Canyon and Bryce Canyon  Not forgetting a couple of days in Las Vegas,  Mormon country, and Native American regions (or do we call them the First Peoples..

Then again, I did spend several months mid year in around 1971 in San Francisco working in an American company on a joint US/UK project. That was interesting. When one meets similar people at work and for some shared leisure, one gets to know a lot more than if one meets only hotel and restaurant staff.

Doesn’t your browser’s ‘Back’ button bring you back here, Jack? It should do!

I'm confused now. It does work with those I have just tested. It didn't used to work. 

I think it didn't work on attachments shown only as the link/description.

My problem is a very poor short term memory. I can't remember things I have just done.
