welcome on board - I think we should have a whole "before and after" section to share photos. I always find them fascinatingcheck out the FAQ for help on how to use the website and don't hesitate to ask any questions

Elicat got that right with "kerasi" which is literally cherry in greek.So 20 goes to the fund and t-shirt to elicat which hoepfully will start a new post, tag it Abruzzo Quiz and give us the next question - and if Jinty and/or alan h pop a symbolic amount in the fund I'll fire off two t-shirts their way as well

Hi, as the member agreement has changed we asked everyone interested to re-register once more so that you all had the chance to see the changed member agreement. The old forums are available here http://www.italymag.co.uk/forums so no information has been lost but the only facility active is the private message system so you can keep in touch with members and exchange e-mails, etc.
Hit F5 or Ctr-R to refresh your browser and the message should stop popping up. To insert the film you need to click on the tiny flim icon to the left of the smilies on the toolbar above (not just paste the link in the text area.
Hi, you are right - but the settings were wrong. I just fixed it - the total size of a gallery is 20MB while each image can be a max of 2MB. Before both the total size of gallery and max per image size were set at 2mb - not really a realistic scenario
