What have you seen

Dave

How did you get a picture this size?

First off I only know it works with my setup, that's Windows, Firefox and mouse on my desktop. Others may have different, but I can't comment on that.

The steps look a lot but in practice its only a few seconds to do. It's a workaround that people should not have to do as other sites allow proper uploading, but we have to live with what's offered.

• I resize a photo to 500 pixels in width
• I have a free throwaway 'Weebly' website where I store all photos where a forum needs an Internet host, like this one.
• I upload my resized photo to my 'Weebly' website and publish it, it is now published, hosted and available to the world.
• I now have two tabs open, the CT forum and my website with the photo.
• I press reply in CT and add my text
• I then click on my photo in the Weebly tab, keep the left mouse button down and drag the photo to the CT tab.
• The CT forum tab opens and I carry on and drag the photo into the CT reply box, where it appears with my text.
• I then press reply.

Thanks for the reply Dave. This seems to be similar to how Oneput advised Photobucket would work only using copy/paste rather than drag and drop.

However Photobucket has been changed it seems and no longer works how it used to.

I guess I will stick to the new upload method.

I was up on Exmoor today, in beautiful wintery sunshine with empty moors all around. I noticed quite a few of the sheep had their horns painted in orange fluorescent paint, an anti car device no-doubt in these dark winter days when quite a few animals get run over.

I also spotted some Exmoor ponies with their lovely thick winter coats so I stopped to take a quick photo of one handsome little pony eating some of the sparse moorland food.

The journey was from Dulverton, over the tops, down to Simonsbath, down through Watersmeet where the old lodge is being repaired just now. Then up Countisbury Hill and on towards Porlock, taking in the view of Porlock and Selworthy Beacon.

You must have parked in my spot Brue where I took my photo

Looks like the same one Dave! No-one around at this time of the year and I was hoping to spot some deer that apparently venture towards Culbone

Today, I took a photo of our daily garden visitor., whose diet of apples I should probably follow!

Fieldfare photo coming up.

Walked around our lovely little Country Park and reservoir this morning, heard a "plop" and yes, a lovely little water vole! Haven't seen one in ages, so very pleased.

I saw the two buzzards again today they must have taken up residence in our local area.

They started to get mobbed by four crows which looks odd them being much larger.

I have seen this before but usually when they stray near to crows nests in season. I suppose the crows see them as rivals to their food source which is road kill on the country lanes.
