Thanks doggie. I did try to reply to this post twice but it gave me an error on both occasions.

Thanx for that - but how do I get the box in the first place???  I am a novice - can't you tell!!

You got to click <use rich formatting> and a WYSWIG  (what you see is what you get) editor will appear.

I am talking about 'insert image' icon

Hi Wendy, glad you got here and have only just seen your post. Doggies link looks a great one. You will get the hang of it soon. Good luck :-)

Success !.Thank you Tiger and Doggie for the links.

Hi BoL and good morning - kicking off with a question - how do you crop your pics to exact size - not like my posts which have all scruffy bits of screen around??????

Hi Wendy and good morning. I've just had a quick look on the web and got a couple of links for you. See how you get on. Cheers :-)

Link #1

Link#2

EDIT....... I know you are very pleased with your new skills coming along. Cropping will be fine for you. I thought I saw an example of you doing that before but mostly you post uncropped views.

Here is how my screen is laid out.......

I use a combination of  three browsers...my personal preference. I like FireFox's Tab Grouping function..lots of tabs, lots of different groups organised. Happy cropping :-)

Thanks for those links, BADGIE - I might be able to get used to them, when I find the time to 'have a go' !   :-)

How busy your screen is - I feel busy if I have the nest on, and two tabs open beside it!
