    Its best to upload to a third party site like www.photobucket.com, they resize the pix automatically and provide 4 ways of linking the pixs to a site.

    Oops, sorry! You'll have to take my word for it, there are separate thunder showers either side of the village at the minute. Rumbles every 30 seconds to a minute.
