I took the geo blogging photos to be just for places we visited, live, travels etc.. whereas our albums on our profiles can be full of anything.

I may be wrong mind....Has been known.........Once

Can I just make a small suggestion.. Why don't you add a "Art and Photography" section?

Somewhere for people who take Photography seriously and would like to showcase their talents?

Something like: "Artwork Gallery" section?

Hi Ian,

We have this section already. Check out:

It's under: Hobbies in the forums..

Good question.

This area is meant to highlight *locations which you visited or experienced - and all the photos must have been taken by you via your cell phone or your regular camera.

The best case is to snap a shot and get it online within a few days of when you took it.

However, as i'm a woman, i am a technophobe. I have no idea of how to post my pics from my p.c. to FG
Mr Oscar is fed up trying to show me.
Is there a FG buddy out there with the patience and plain p.c. speak who can help me.?

I'm serious, i had to phone Mr Oscar once when he was out to ask how the grill on our oven worked

You need a special lead that fits the appropriate socket in your camera and joins the camera to the PC in a USB port. The PC should throw instructions on it's screen for you to follow. But, without the lead, you won't be able to transfer pics to your PC !

Our second home (you can see our first cottage to the right of this pic. Same village, yes, but a bigger cottage altogether, with a large garden and outbuildings as well - we were expanding and growing out of our first cottage !
