First day on here I got over 50 emails from the forum answers so I went and changed that. Can you imagine if we had to settle for keeping the emails coming, the room would be kaput.

Well Irina, I guess that makes me 1/2 broccoli???? Sure hope so,,,would hate to be a turnip! DJ I love both of those violets. Course you will understand I have never seen a violet that didn't make it to my "wish list!" lol Now where did I put that list???? You are a writer???? What do you write???? For a newspaper??? A novel??? Poetry??? Optimara Michele Just for giggles, I have heard several people say they have trouble getting a photo to post here. This is my pix of my Opt Michele. All I did was click on Photo (at the end of this post down by where it says submit ) and it let me go into my computer to upload/post one of my personal photos to this site. If you want to post a photo from your gwf profile page then you click on Houzz Photo below and then select one of them click insert and it will put it here. Couldn't be easier. How do you like my fancy dancy wick watering system? Not pretty,,,,but I works like a charm! This photo was from one of my Ideabooks. Rosie

question - if you do use Houzz and you save pictures in your idea book - how do you share them with people that are not on Houzz? I can't save them and it takes forever to load on my phone. I want to go to the tile store tonight and share the photos with the person there. :( now I am annoyed I started with an idea book here. Of course I have one on pinterest too, but I cant get the Houzz pictures there. Can I?

Ok, where were we? Oh yeah. After clicking to create a new Ideabook, you get to name it something awesome, like "Recipes and Tips I want to try!" Then below that you can add a description. You can type in whatever you wish, but don't be a smart aleck like this person... Also, you have the option of making it Public, or Private (in case you're embarrassed by the number of posts your saving. I don't embarrass easily!) Then click Create. ... And look at that! You have a new Ideabook! Whoo-hoo! Oh, but you want to save a post with a recipe in it, or some tip, or an idea? Okay... So head on over to the Cooking Forum of Garden Web (coz that's the best place to get recipes, help, tips, and inspiration, and also, it's where all the cool people hang out.) Now, you see a post that inspires you? Okay, see the Save button at the end of that post? Well, don't just sit there, click it! And you get this pop-up. So hit the arrow button and click on the Ideabook you want to put it in (the one you just created would be a good place), and type in (if you wish), a comment to remind you of why you saved that post. Like Jasdip's poppadoms. Never had one, never heard of them before, but sure would like to try them! Ok, click Save to Ideabook... Now, because Houzz thinks everyone should have their nifty Houzz save button, they ask if you want it (even if you already have the darned thing, like I do!). You can click that, or just click no thanks to get rid of the pop-up. And next time you go to your account, you can click on the new Ideabook you just created, and look at the various posts you saved : ) I'll just add this: It's a good thing to make that little note of why you saved the post (unlike me when I first started doing this), because you would otherwise have a zillion unlabeled posts, and what if you were looking for something specific? Have fun Jasdip! PS: I didn't know one could save posts to Ideabooks until recently. ...back to the sawdust and sweat : /
