[Quijote]

Yes! It works! Many thanks, Megan. Photos of Strasbourg and endless passages from scores showing odd harmonies to follow ...
(You will all regret this new technique that has now been revealed to me...)

[Megan]

Thanks Megan, I'll give that a try later tonight ot tomorrow.

Just put in front of it [img]then at the end of it put[/img]

make sure the brackets are close up to the writing. and don't forget to put the little slash in the end brackets.
I hope that's not too muddly for you. I am sure you will get there. I can't wait to see the wonderful pictures of Strasbourg!

[Megan]

Oh my, its a bit large.

[Preston]

Yes, when I master the technique I shall show you all the wonders of Strasbourg : the interior of my fridge with its various delicacies, my wine cellar ...

ROTFL!!!

[Quijote]

Well, I managed to copy the link (from Photobucket), but I don't know how to import the actual image. Can anyone help me, please?
By the way, the photo is from Venice, the Future Pass Asia exhibition I referred to elsewhere on this forum.

What I do Philip is, upload the pictures from my cell phone, you can also do this with your camera, then they are saved on your computer.
I then upload them to my Flickr account where they are also saved, the great thing about flickr, is that you can change the size of the photo's, usually I choose 'meduim' if I want copy it to a website such a the one I posted above. What you do to post a picture is - copy and paste .
Firstly choose your piccy, then right click on it , you will see option bar there, choose copy, ok. now keep that and come onto the forum then right click again, and press , paste

you will need to put these tags before and after the address of the link. For example, [img]picture address link[/img]

Chris or Peter will probably walk you through it better than I .
Though I will help as much as I can.

I think it deserves a special thread on these technical issues -
and it would be lovely to see living where you do in beautiful Strasbourg!

I would be very happy to post some photos of local places of interest, but I have no idea how to (being rather a neanderthal, technologically speaking, though I do now possess a digital camera!). Could anyone give me very, very easy instructions how to?
If I can master the technique for doing so, it could also be useful when discussing scores etc., whereby I could scan the passage in question and post it.

A very imposing castle Peter, do they hold performance there?
Great picture too with the colourful reflections in the water.


Thanks Angnes and EternaLisa
The council do different displays for all seasons in the park, during the hard winter last year,they put on an ice sculpture.

Not that I'm aware of - there is also a small cathedral in the town and they tend to take place there.

[Peter]

Very beautiful, Peter. Does anyone live in the castle? It looks just like
something out of a fairytale.

Yes the castle is lived in and fortunately it is also open to the public.

[Chris]

Yes, but not in my town! There are some nice vineyards and farms here in Maryland. And of course there are the points of interest in Washington D.C. But I don't think any of that compares to Peter's castle!

[Megan]

Hm...well...we've got a Wal-Mart.

I thought Maryland was a beautiful US state, with lots of things to see there.
I understand that it is named after Mary Tudor, the last Catholic sovereign of England (alas).
