Harry! I have been following your instructions as to adding a picture, so far no luck. I have got as far as attaching photos, but when I try to post (or even 'preview') it keeps telling me 'too big' 'limit 1500kb'
As I have no idea just how many kb in each picture I kept reducing the number of photos, first 6 then 5,4,3,2, even just one!
Still 'Too big'.
Wot iz oi doin wrooong?

This is going to sound very long winded but is actually the work of but minutes. Click on 'pictures' on your computer's control panel and highlight the file with the cowboy building piccys in it. Right click and a box will come up, select 'send to'. From this sub box pick 'mail recipient'. A box will appear with a drop down box to select piccy sizes, select 'small 800x600' then select 'attach'. This will generate an e-mail which you send to yourself! When it arrives right click on each individual piccy and select 'save picture as'. You'll then have a full set of Cowboy town piccys resized under the 'limit 1500kb' wot's stopping you from posting the pictures.
It's taken longer to type this bollix than it will for you to resise and save fifty piccys... good hunting Companyero!
Or... emayl the piccys to me and I'll do it!!!

Yesterday's game of FofL was a blast in more ways than one. We played the 'Posse and Devil's Hole' scenario. Snake Eyed Pete and his scumbags were holed up in a derelict ranch house in the badlands, one of his young underlings being outside tending their pack horse. The Dook and his Posse, hidden in the surrounding rocks, call on them to surrender. With frightening alacrity Snake Eyed Pete's young underling gets a stick of dynamite, lights it and throws it at The Dook. The Dook, being The Dook, takes aim with his Winchester and explodes the dynamite in mid air, this kinda starts the ball!
Snake Eyed Pete and his scumbags know if they can hold out till dusk they can sneak off by a secret trail through the rocks... battle is joined with the more numerous Posse getting the edge. Several scumbags are wounded in the derelict ranch house and three of the Posse enter to effect an arrest. remember the young underling with the pack horse and dynamite? With a perfectly executed lob he sends a stick right down the chimney of the derelict ranch house, the resultant boom killing everybody inside. This brings the undivided attention of the Posse upon the young underling and they close in all guns blazing... not the brightest of ideas when a baddy's using a horse full of dynamite as cover. There's another, even louder boom, and of the young underling, pack horse and dim witted Posse there's left nary a thing!
All this time The Dook and Snake Eyed Pete have been duelling Winchesters. The Dook finally loosing site of his target as the evening's shadows lengthen. Snake Eyed Pete cogitates grimly as he slithers away up the secret trail from the hideout...

"Just wot was the name, of the young underthing, out there toting the dynamite!!!???"
