Thanks for the encouragement, Helen.

These guys took a lot longer to paint than I would have liked. I rather fear I have made a rod for my own back choosing an army with so much white.

Just need to work out how to reduced the size of the photos I load - is there a way to do this on the site or should I be jiggering about with the original image?

Cheers for that. I use brother utilities from our printer software to resize my photos. Unless the public photo storage has a feature for such facilitation.

Thanks, Helen.   :)

I have managed to cut the image down on the editing stuff in imgur. Took a bit of footling but seem to be getting there. Will resized earlier image too.
