Unbelieveable just how real it looks, and how Little has changed. do you have any Idea where they came from, and when they what Years ???? :thinking: :thinking:

I believe they were from the early years of the 1900's. Danny

I like the card from Brooklyn with the hooker standing on the corner.

(Just kidding, so don't bother looking for it.)

Hit quote in this post and see how I put [img] on both sides of the link to your picture.

The way I do it is open a picture and copy the url and paste it in a message. Then I highlight the url and click the Img button.

Sledge, first, you have to upload the photo to your album. You can't link it to an external site.

But really? All you have to do is highlight the URL and click the IMG button? I always Do that pain-in-the-butt thing with putting the image tags before and after. Didn't know there was such a simple way to do it!

8) you can get pictures from an Internet site if it is on the open web. You right click on the picture, go to Properties and about midway down the card there is a URL. Highlight it and copy it.

come back to the post and push Img. Paste the URL and push Close Tags that will get the picture uploaded straight to the post.

I find this easier to do by opening a second window to get the picture. You can leave your post up in one and have the picture in the other.

Thanks Mary K/ ;)

That works for probably everything except teardrops and tiny trailers. IF you admit you have an addiction for TD &TTT's there still is no cure and I do not think there is a support group either :lol: :lol:

I understand completely........ as most of you know I'm a member of Tearjerkers, BUT...... I had never heard of this site till we went to the North Meets South meet last summer, and a Teardrop family from Seiverville told me about this site. And....... I've been here ever since, and have learned a lot. :thumbsup:
