Antique Roses Roses

Having troubles posting pictures.....

I wanted to share my winning arrangement from our rose show I got lucky. I won on my first time out.... though I have to say I learned it all from the class they had at our rose society. It was a lot of fun competing.

That’s beautiful, Sharon! I love making arrangements, but I’d have no idea how to go about making one like yours. It looks so sophisticated and modern. I can easily picture it at the registration counter of a pricey, posh hotel. What are the other plants you used? They’re so unique. Well done, and congratulations! Lisa

Pretty! Impressive that you won first time arranging. I love the title "I believe in magic." I really suits the arrangement.

I share your pain. I've been battling rose midge for a year. I think I now have vanquished the enemy, but I sprayed, poured, scattered all kinds of stuff to get rid of it. Not sure what it was that worked. Maybe it was the Merit. I'm thinking the plastic will work if you are unable to use chemicals. Good luck. -Paul

getting pictures to post instead of just a web address

Good Morning! I just learned this last week thanks to the wonderful post by buehl (see below). On photobucket, when you mouse over the picture you want a box shows up under it. When you click on HTML the code will highlight, right click and choose copy, then in the body of your post choose paste and the code will post. When you preview your msg before submitting, you should see your picture. Now, look past the box for posting your msg, under it is a box for "Optional Link URL" this is where you post the web address of where you want someone to go. The box under that for "Name of the Link" just type whatever you want. This is what shows up highlighted at the bottom of your post. Good Luck! Here is a link that might be useful: Read Me If You're New To GW Kitchens!

sugarb, Do you have a photo hosting site like photobucket? If you tell us what you have available, we can help you post pics. I use photobucket. I place my pictures there, and when I want to post one here, I first left click on the HTML code under the pic, and it turns green. Then right click, and select Copy from the pop-up. Then come back to your post and simply paste the info your post below what you've written. All you see is a few rows of code, but when you Preview Message before placing it on this site, it'll show the photo. You can put multiple pictures into one post using that method.

Thanks for the compliments. I really did not know how to do an arrangement, until our society had a person who judges arrangements come and show us how to make several different kinds. It was very inspirational meeting and I decided to give it a go..... If you guys ever have a chance to see a demonstration, I highly recommend it.... I really got a lot out of it, which I don't always get when reading about them..... but I guess that is from my learning style.... Thanks again for the compliments.

OK.... now I can't even create a NEW post at all..... I tried all day yesterday... and twice today... I am not even trying to add a picture....

I go through the motions tell the post I want it to be in roses and in antique roses... it appears to go through... no ERRORS whatsoever.... but the post NEVER appears....

either I will get tons of theses post appearing at sometime or other... or they are broken

I don't want to hijack someone else's thread, but it SURE would be able to post a question!!!!! Grrr.

Hijack away, or maybe post it in the seasonal thread. Congrats on your win, btw. I remember seeing this post, but apparently didn't comment at the time. That's quite an accomplishment, especially first time out. You're a natural! : ))
