Hello Rob,

welcome to ALF,

I have just upgraded you (and a few other members) to "regulars" status so feel free to create an album in the Media Gallery and post your photos there.  This way you can add some description, other members can comment and they will appear randomly in the image sidebox on the left.

As a member of the "Regulars", your images are automatically approved so you dont have to wait for a moderator to approve them (or any comments you add).

For image resizing and basic editing, I really like Irfanview - a small program that just runs off an executable file.  It is one of the first programs I install on any new computer:

cheers

Hi Rob,

If you ever need someone to push your barrow so as to speak, let me know, love it up there.  Looks like you've done a lot of work so far.
