Thank you for the replys, livsauntieshel & teddahlia have opened a picas folder & am not sure how to insert image code? Only placed a link to the folder at bottom of this post. The flowers in this folder were taken today & are not as good as unusual, as this is the last of a week of hot humid weather with day temps 22 oC min up to 35 oC max each day. Will try Flickr next, if I find picas difficult to post images from? cheers allan Here is a link that might be useful: Dahlia Images taken today 7th February 2011

the link doesn't work. neither did GardenSharing.com when i typed it into the address line. nor did a google search for the site. hmmm.

I hate to admit it but Mistiaggie may be right. We've been trying to change it for 2 years without much luck. But I remain hopeful! I don't know if it would help to contact Tamara at GardenWeb but on the Far North forum one of their members posted her email address when they were trying to get their logo changed and it seems to have worked. Maybe that's what it takes. She hasn't answered my email yet but sometimes it takes a while on subjects like this. She was great and responded very quickly though when we had a problem with someone on the forum sending threatening emails to other members. So when you really need her to take action quickly, she does. Kate

I'm assuming that by " for 'viewing' only -- not copied or shared." you mean you'd like to try to make it more difficult to copy or hot-link to the image? You may be able to size and position a transparent gif on top of the image to make it a little harder to copy, or link to. This forum allows that, most probably do not. I doubt that you'll find a host that provides code though. BTW, the above image is actually three images, all sized the same, and positioned absolutely so they're stacked one directly on top of the other. Bottom image is the main scene, middle image is the snow gif, top image is the transparent gif. Right-click it and select "View image"(In Firefox) and all you get is the transparent gif. Something like this: <div style="position:relative;"><img src="URL_of_image"><div style="position:absolute;top:0px;left:0px;"><img width="width_of_image" height="height_of_image" src="URL_of_the_transparent_gif"></div></div> All that would do though is make a person have to inspect the source rather than simply right-clicking so... you'd only stop a few folks. If you post it, you allow it to be sent to the user's browser, so of course it can be copied, if fact, it already is. :)
