I am trying yet again to upload a photo. Will try, and if it works, I'll post what I have done.

It worked a treat Twiggywinkle. Lovely picture. Did you make the treats yourself. What a wonderful tablecloth, where ever did you find it?. I used to love decorating trees outside with coloured eggs on strings and having easter egg hunts for the children when they were little. I used to sometimes make sugar eggs too, very time consuming, but i really enjoyed doing little craft projects with the children. I have just one egg left, it's about 15 years old and survived countless moves. I'll have to dig it out and maybe post a picture.

Yeh, I did it! I was having trouble resizing and uploading, So here is what I did. Salle de Bain this might help you. Go to My Pictures. Select the photo. Rightclick on Photo. Go to "open with". Click on Paint.(This reduces the size) The photo opens in Paint. Go to "File". Go "save as" Change name of file(I put in Easter Table) and save.Go to RM, and start your post. Go down to manage Attachments. Browse and select your photo.Click upload. Wait,it then shows attachment.Click out, and submit reply. I hope this helps someone. Let me know.
Hope to goodness I can do it again, and that my instructions are O.K. You can then go back to my pictures and delete the resized photo if you wish. I always send photos by email through Picasa, and they automatically resize. Good luck, I'm off to bed!

Thank you Keepersdaughter. It was just a random Photo. We have a B&B and I love to theme everything for occasions. I do lots of art, crafts, gardening, painting etc with my little grand daughter, who is almost 5. We made the Choc Nests. The cloth, and tealight holder(which I repainted to suit my colour scheme) I bought in Lydl. Have bought lots of occasion things there, and so inexpensive. They do new items every year.Over the years, I have collected bits in the States, France, and I love designing and making decorations and footie faddles as I call them. At least I will be able to upload photos now.
