Some things to try

If you right-click an image, is there an option to "Show full quality" or
something similar? If so, you're running an accelerator program. These speed
up display of webpages at the expense of image quality. These programs are added by your ISP.

To check for an incompatible add-on, disable all add-ons from IE> Tools>
Manage add-ons. Re-enable them one at a time until the problem returns.

In Firefox click help select "Restart with Add ons disabled" See if that helps.

Do this exercise too:

Copy and paste the text between the stars below into Notepad.

*************************************************************

@Echo on
pushd\windows\system32\drivers\etc
attrib -h -s -r hosts
echo 127.0.0.1 localhost>HOSTS
attrib +r +h +s hosts
popd
ipconfig /release
ipconfig /renew
ipconfig /flushdns
netsh winsock reset all
netsh int ip reset all
shutdown -r -t 1
del %0[/code]
**********************************************************
Save as flush.bat to your desktop.
Double-click flush.bat file to run it. Your computer will reboot.

Note: For Windows Vista or Windows 7, right-click flush.bat and select "Run as Administrator".

See if that helps.

luvs - Here's a couple pics from our 1st FM this year...my old quilts wouldn't even staying hanging down on the tables...and my cards were blowing away out of the boxes so I put them away! Yikes! Here's DH wondering what the heck we're doing...but we learned & it improved! Never can count on Ia. weather. Last summer we did a trail couple times & decided we'd give it a go...and I retired also. So we had fun. But you can see some of the fun stuff we make tog. & my DH does alot on his own, too. We enjoy. Log bdhs, Mission bdhs, folkart, I made the rd ones from the porch columns I salvaged at a farm (they were newer & split in 2 lengthwise)...so I got to make lots of those...sure you've seen...and also shutter bdhses, my DH helped me (or maybe vice-versa, barn doors I have fun with...anyway, a great time! Our's is $60 for season or $75 if you get a "shady spot." Of course, we haven't worked our way there yet. Pics not great...but you get the jest of it...Jeanne S. Look out SS...OH NO, I can't ship you a barn door!

Ha ha, I wish. No, that was a show citrata, given an award (don't remember which place). I took a pic of it to remind myself what they can be. I've had a citrata for a while, and it's doing great now. But it had its struggles. My citrata is what started the whole 'building my acrylic case' endeavor, and my very first ang. Wish I could've smelled that citrata, but it was set back a little far for me to lean over properly and try to smell it without feeling like I was going to fall into the display pit. Still waiting for mine to bloom. The spike looks like it's growing, but not super fast. Maybe it stalled? It's sending out a new root and keeps putting out new leaves. Oh well.

Fig disease photo site?
Q
Comments (5)
Hello, Having researched fig sites for the past few years, I am not immediately aware of a website that lists more than just a few diseases and pictures of the diseases. I may have missed it if there is one. I have however, found documents that list several diseases in one spot. I have pasted a few links that might help since they list several diseases. You will have to do a search to find a picture. Ingevald 2006 Florida Plant Disease Management Guide: Fig (Ficus carica) by Ronald D. French-Monar and Pamela D. Roberts from University of Florida Extension - http://edis.ifas.ufl.edu/PG010 Diseases of Fig by Themis J. Michailides - University of California, Kearney Agricultural Center. This is chapter 11(p. 253 in the book ÂDiseases of Tropical Fruit CropsÂ edited by R.C. Ploetz. Saw it on Google Books but not all the pages are available.

Nate, I am doing fine with Photobucket, but it does have a learning curve. Julia had an excellent post on it not long ago. Not many of us like change, and I surely didn't, but it works pretty well now. not perfect, but pretty good. kay
