I was up on Skipton Moor overlooking the town from the Southeast (so looking northwest).

With picasa you have to click the 'link to this image' button on the right and then choose a size 144, 300 or 800 and then copy the link. After you copy the link it looks like a jumbled mess.

<a href="http://picasaweb.google.com/tyr.francoperlak/Skipton/photo#5094776445005533234"><img src="http://lh4.google.com/tyr.francoperlak/RrRILvaVEDI/AAAAAAAAAWk/Q-gnV01hBN0/s800/...%20from%20the%20Moor.jpg" /></a>

(I selected size 800)

That has to be cut to:

LBA test shot, 'new' A28f2.8

Contrast was not good on that day because it was hazy. Light was not very good either, but we had to keep moving.

With Picasa's web gallery the process is a lot more complicated. Google really went overboard with the complexity of it all and not with features.

I only went with it because I hate Yahoo and already had a Gmail account.

Looks like it had just taken off.

If you are going to quote, do it right.

It is just seen as more polite and organised to keep all of one topic under one topic. In other forums the threads would have been merged ASAP and you would have had a finger wagging in your direction.

I really like a few of these pictures but it seems like you are going a little overboard in self promotion with one thread per picture.

Don't take offence, just trying to keep some order and not have to open seven threads for what is essentially the same topic.

Sorry but, do you really need a new thread for almost each picture? I think it would be better to keep the discussion in one place personally...

Need red with a dark grey background...

Nope, it only blocks what you want it to, and by default that is only a known advert database. You'd have to add Flickr and Photobucket or similar sites to the filter.

Ok, I've got that now, and successfully binned the bits at the top and the images from the side bar.

I take it there's no way of getting rid of the text in the side bar too?
No, that is part of the site itself, AdBlocker works by getting rid of external link adverts and images as well as any images you point it at. It can't get rid of text that is part of a site, it has no way to tell what belongs where. It works on a database of known adverts.
