The Picture Thread III: Say Cheese!

[emma glitch]

Yay! That's the didgeridoo guy, and the lovely home/studio he is building. I went to Camera West yesterday to learn how to use my video function so I can go back and video a demonstration, which I failed at spectacularly Saturday.

Now I'll try for the tile house.

What a drag. Try copying the contents of the text box before you click Submit, and then if you have to log back in you can just paste it again.

I think it's wonderful that so many of them are in the Morongo Basin and along Hwy 62. BTW there's a Highway 62 Revisited blog. Haven't seen it yet, but I mean to.

I should have known.

I can always remember because I relate it to the year I was born.

The spider earrings:

Cool. Jade Spider Earrings. Sounds like a Shadow novel or something.

Oh, I see. It was happening before you could even get the code inserted. It should get better. They usually only last a few days.

[Madeliaette]

code inserted? I was trying to load a picture, not code....

In the post, the picture is represented by BBCode that points to the file-- if the file is successfully uploaded and inserted, you can copy and paste that code just like text.

here is my cute lil friend again - out and about DAYTIME again - sigh.

It's good that he comes during the day-- it makes it possible to get pictures and videos of him. If he keeps getting nice meals, he'll probably keep coming.

Here's a pic of my dad I took last year with my phone. I didn't realize it would be so big!!

[Madeliaette]

^ Nice to see what he looks like jgc!!

BBCode that points to the file-

oh i dont know about BBcodes - i upload them via the upload/place inline feature...
well so long as the hog isnt sick/starved - because they are nt meant to be out daytime unless they are in trouble.... but maybe i got an eccentric one!! (actually the frogs think it is spring - they were making courting croaks yesterday...)

Wow, he looks great. I hope I look that good in thirty or forty years. Of course, he's handsomer now than I ever was.

oh i dont know about BBcodes - i upload them via the upload/place inline feature...

And that creates the code. When you click on the button to place the picture inline, you'll see something like this:

[attachment=0 ]pondhog.jpg[/attachment ]

I put extra spaces in there to disable it, but that's basically the code that tells ReNext what to display. If you quote your post with the hedgehog, you'll see it in there.

well so long as the hog isnt sick/starved - because they are nt meant to be out daytime unless they are in trouble.... but maybe i got an eccentric one!!

I hope he's just eccentric and not sick. If he's just hungry, then he'll be okay, since you're feeding him.

Well, at least they're having a good time.

Desert Rose Society Rose Show. Yes, the green ones are roses, or so I've been told, but I think I'm going to ask about that.

I googled it, and this makes sense to me:

Green roses have a very unusual anatomy in comparison to other roses, because green rose blooms are made up entirely of sepals. Sepals are the leaves that encircle blossoms on normal rose plants. Instead of producing normal petals, green rose bushes continously grow sepals until the overcrowded foliage resembles a flower.

strange.... more like a plant without flowers than a rose, but....i guess the diff between rgular tea roses and old fashioned ones is wide tooly - got both fo they ici

[RJDiogenes]

Yes, that's very interesting. No blossoms, just sepals. It does seem to be petals with no blooming, but I guess maybe sepals are considered part of the flower. I wonder how it reproduces if it has no pistils and stamens.
