Hi Sean - Firstly resize your photos to less that 500 x500 pixels (On my computer program I select 'Web Small 448 x 336)

I write what you want and then tick the 'Options' box on the bottom left that says 'attach files to this post' and then POST - then when you have posted it the next step will come up where you add the photograph - select 'Choose file' and click on it - that takes you to the appropriate area in your computer to get the photo from - double click on the photo you have selected - then click 'Upload' - When it has uploaded then repeat the process for each photo if you want to add more than one then when you have uploaded the photos you want to upload click 'Back' - Viola - All done...hopefully.

Hope that helps.

Sounds good - always liked Naseby and St Bathans and intended spending more time there - Hmm maybe we can get a trip in somewhere different for you, me and someone we know and boys...just a thought. have fun and hope the weather smiles with good fortune.

choice photos, a bit of past and today. A frozen tint is a cool thing, as soon as one moves all the frozen droplets full off and soak the only dry thing, the sleeping bag.

Well done Sean. It's a good result for a day's labour getting a couple of grams without a detector, or even with one, for that matter.
