Finally ! but oh,my goodness, what a lot of work. I hope I get faster. Bill does it screw up the works if we post too many pics, is it better for the website if we just put down the link.

Posting several pictures (I set my personal limit at three 640x480 pix) in the same topic will cause the page to load a lot slower for us folks who are stuck with dialup internet, but since the pix are on a different site it doesn't affect the forum scripts.

Besides being an armchair gardener, I am an armchair photographer. Before this site became my addiction, my favorite URL was Wunderground Photos
Supposedly for weather related photos (I discovered it when following all the tropical storms and finally got to the photo part) there is a second category of any photo taken so the weather is a part of the photo, including pictures taken inside but showing the outside. You'd probably have to move your houseplants outside or in front of a window. There are a lot of flower, landscape, and animal photos and also some of locomotives, stock car races, landmarks, etc. The best of both categories is selected to be shown in the Critic Approval section.
Each contributor has his/her own handle, photos must be no larger than 640 x 480 (I think) and there doesnt appear to be a time limit on pictures. It will be kept in the main sections for up to a day and your photo will have its own URL. Anyone can do a search by subject, date, handle, caption, title, etc.
It really is a site worth visiting and might solve the problem of having a photo on the web in order to enter it here. And lots of people see the photo and even rate it 1 to 10. Ratings are only shown after 10 people have rated it, but I've seen some fairly new photos with over 100 ratings.
In order to contact the photographers you have to be a member, but there's no charge and I joined without photos simply because I couldn't stand not commenting on some of the really good ones.
The dragon flower photo I posted on the mystery plant site was found there--I still don't think we have the answer.
