Cliff Ton.
A Ha! I get the same page as your top image, BUT, where the IMG has http: etc beside it, I get http/s1276 etc. Why am I showing URL instead of IMG?
-
Cliff Ton says that when I click on 'Paste' I should see the http identity appear [http://s1276.photobucket.cc]. It doesn't. Is this tell us something?
The test-picture I am using is the my Avatar image, which, of course has already transferred correctly. Another jpeg image did not work either.

The dog-waste bins - do the night soil men empty them?

#30. Something similar happened to me when I was young. I asked mam what pocket billiards was. She said 'It's when men fiddle with their goolies'. That shut me up.

Strange why Photobucket works OK to put my avatar picture in the right place, but will not insert a picture in the Reply box. I have had both pages on the screen at the same time - Nottstalgia and Photobucket. This way I did not come out of Photobucket, but the result was the same when I clicked Post - a message appears saying that 'Your post is empty'.
By now I would have expected the schaudenfreude (sp)-minded members to have clicked the Like This tab!!

Here we go again.
I left-clicked the IMG code and then had to come out of Photobucket to get back into Nottstalgia - which I had left open. After clicking 'paste' I get a message that there is no image. It seems to me that coming out of Photobucket deleted the saved image. It is in this area where I am going wrong - I think. I have also put something in the message window on the Photobucket page and clicked on 'post' below it before coming out.

I know how the Enigma coding machine works, and am quite au fait with the German Geheimschreiber machine, but have not yet fathomed what IIRC means.

Let's see if this works!
Nope. it dint
And again
Nope. Am I losing the saved image when I come out of Photobucket? Expliquer simplement, s'il vous plait!

I seem to remember that there was another Saturday sports newspaper in the 1950s, 1960s, that had green pages. The seller would shout 'green 'un', 'green 'un'.

Thanks Cliff Ton, obviously I am on the right track but when do I see the image? Do I see it before posting? Incidentally, my image is 33kb not mb.

I cannot find a way to post an image, despite following instructions. I call up Photobucket, click on library, click on view images, click on the image I want to send, then click on IMG (in right-hand column). The http identity next to it turns yellow and says 'copied'. I then go the test page Reply window, click on it, then right click and click on 'paste' Nothing happens. The file size is 33MB.
katyjay says that when she opens her library in Photobucket it has the IMG under each picture - mine doesn't. Also, she says that when she clicks the IMG it turns blue (like me at the moment!)
Where am I going wrong?

#24. Don't be silly, he invented tobacco.

katyjay. Er, - 78s were singles, but not having LPs we did not called them that! I bought my radiogram in 1961, so didn't buy any 45s until then. The Byrds record was issued in 1965, so could not have been that one. I have had a look at my 45s, but cannot remember which I bought first. Bought the Dean Martin record, and the radiogram, from an electrical shop on Aspley Lane, just up from the Forum cinema - think its name was Dabells, or something like that.

#79 katyjay. See #63. I'll play you Mr Tambourine Man next time you are over.

Another one of mam's sayings, about cooking - 'When it's brown it's done, when it's black it's boggered'.

As topless bathing is allowed on English beaches, will it be allowed in Slab square? After all, we men are in favour of feminine equal opportunities.

They would be a prelatrix.
katyjay. When in America once I mentioned the timescale 'fortnight'. What's a fortnight was the response.

I thought I would have a go at starting a new topic. In our lives we sometimes come across something that we cannot understand, like the example below, or the understanding of the answer to a cryptic crossword clue, or the reason why something in the past did or didn't happen. Another example might be 'what was that film where so-and-so played a .....' .
I'll start the ball rolling with a popular riddle from many years ago that I never got my head around:
Three people go for a meal in a restaurant.
The bill comes to thirty pounds.
They each give the waiter ten pounds.
The waiter realises that he has overcharged the bill by five pounds.
He keeps two pounds for himself and gives one pound back to each diner.
So far as each diner is concerned they have now paid nine pounds for their meal.
3 times nine pounds makes twenty-seven pounds, plus the two pounds retained by the waiter makes twenty-nine pounds.
Where did the missing pound go?
Obviously, the diners should have received £1.66 each back from the waiter, but the above mathematics make some kind of sense. Where does it go wrong?

If someone was showing fear or anxiety, mam would say they had nerves like chewed string.

How do you put a piece of music - an MP3 file on my computer - on to a thread page?

Mick2me. If that is the Welsh national anthem (Bulwell version) then I am thinking of the wrong tune. The one in my mind has the words 'Wales, Wales, land of....' or something like that. They sing it at rugby matches.
Ayupmeducks. Thanks for the words of the American one, but hope that they don't have to sing it all the way through.
Bilbraborn. I know she is, but that doesn't make it right in my thinking. She isn't even ancestrally English.
-
I think our National Anthem is miserable - miserable tune and miserable lyrics. It praises a person, not the country and its people. All this will change when we are a republic. By far the best I have heard is the Welsh anthem, the American one is good, too.
As for playing anthems at sporting events, I think there should be a universal anthem, either for all sports or each sport having its own anthem. Play it once and its over with.

Yeah, I know what it's like. I keep getting mistaken for Errol Flynn. (not how he looks today!)
