Wow! Really? I mean.. Wow!
Couldn't get online the last couple of days, so this post is somewhat belated, still: Thanks to all the participants for doing their best in creating such a wonderful team; I am really thrilled and honored to be its new head coach.
And now, some celebratory dancing appears to be in order..
Tra-la-la-la-la..

Oh frabjous day, calloo, callay! The team arrived today. I am blown away by the splendour and neatness of it.
Here's some team shots:
(Well, silly me. Turns out, the pics I took are to wide to fit into an [img] post, so I guess y'all have to follow the linky to the album containing them to actually be able to see them. Sorry 'bout that.)
Here's the linky:

More to follow if someone tells me how to use a camera.

Again, a big and hearty Thank You to all participants, you have really done something to be proud of.

Hey Pug, would you mind telling me how you did that? I just got a message reprimanding me for trying to upload big pics.

Hey Pug, would you mind telling me how you did that? I just got a message reprimanding me for trying to upload big pics.

If you click on the picture in your photobucket album, there will then be a 'edit' button at the top. In the edit menu, click on 'resize', them 'large', then 'save'. They should then be fine for uploading

[Pug]

when in the album for the picture where it is stored, hover over the thumbnail. Then click the "edit" tab above it that appears.
Wait for the editing page to load.
Once loaded...look along the buttons in the editing suite toolbar and click on the one that says "Resize"..should be a symbol with four diagonal arrows.
An option toolbar appears. There will be two numbers present in two boxes. These are the current Width and Height of the image your looking at.
Make sure the "Keep Proportions" box is ticked (Just to the right of toolbar).
In the first number box, change the number to 800 (This is the pixel width). The other number will change to the correct size to keep the pictures WxH dimension proportions.
Now at the bottom of the page is a "Create Copy" and "Replace Original" button.
Pick "Replace" to overight the current image with the reduced one.
OR
Click the "Create Copy" to create another image file, with the new dimensions.
Fill out the file name etc etc.

Now go back to the pictures folder.
Hover over the image and move the cursor over the IMG code box. Click in it once (It will highlight all the code) and CTL+C (Keyboard shortcut for "Copy").

Go to the post you want and CTL+V (Paste) the code into the post.

Job Done!
