Hmmm... how do I make the photos show up?

Well, first welcome to the thread, santamonicadesign. I hope this is the beginning of a long association. Don't let the posting image learning curve buffalo you. It was daunting for all of us with the possible exceptions of ER, GW and Scott (and maybe sopas and a couple of others). I see you're using Flickr which is my hosting site as well, so maybe I can walk you through it. You're really close. Go to your photo-stream and pull up the image you want to post. Above the image you have two prompts (with pull down menus), on the left 'action' and on the right 'share', you want to click 'share' and a box will drop down showing the code for your pic. First you want to look down and scroll through the available sizes (choose a large size, 1024 is good, as we really like the bigger images around here, all the better to ferret out the detail), highlight the size you want and then highlight all the code in the box. Now right click copy and bring it over here and paste it in an open post, add your commentary and, voila'! hit 'post reply' and you're home free. Remember we're Los Angeles (or Southern California) centric, prefer the noir side of things, like the deep history of the city, the architecture, the politics, the movers, shakers and the misbegotten. If you can work in a murder or two, so much the better. Welcome.
