Posting your entries.
As long as the pics are in the CC gallery, the easiest way to add these to the entry thread, is to copy the BBcode shown in the attached image. To find this code, simply click a thumbnail, and below the intermediate pic you'll find the file info box. It's at the bottom. Paste this code straight into your entry post. Done this way the pics will automatically link to the full size image when clicked.
Adding images to the poll.
Right click each pic in the entry thread, and copy the image address. These can be added to each option box as build the poll,
(Example) Code like this, entered into the option boxes.

Anything stringy! Had a piece of meat from the butchers that was stringy. Does that count? :2funny:
No, because you should have cooked it properly :legit:
Interesting THREAD :2funny:
now...how to make string look good.
I was on a site once (purely accidently) and there was a rather nice young lady with a string vest on, how would that be?

. . worth a look
i have to keep this great site clean, are you sure you want to see it?
there are no lady bits on show
Nor particularly, I was just making conversation ;)
I have an idea formulating that involves a length of rope, a dog and a small boy getting dragged around the garden (please dont call the social services or rspca) :tup:
Well have managed to get a couple of shots done. Not sure if I will stick with one of these or see what else I come up with. Depends on inspiration and time.

Nice shots Guy.
Having set the topic I didn't have the first idea what to do. I've finally had some (limited) inspiration and shall try to get something tomorrow.
Bit disappointed that Mrs T wouldn't let me tie her up though . . .
Afternoon All,
Mines in for this weekend:

Not had much chance to get too creative this weekend but spotted some garden string in the shed and took a shot 'as is'.
Good luck all.
Steve

Jim, the last stands out for me
It does make more of a statement than the other two I agree Alan. But I like the way the first one leads your eye up to the rope at the end of the jetty. Decisions,decisions. :-\
your choice has got my vote :)
Cheers Alan. My vote went to orGie, very well taken photo in my opinion. :tup:
thanks Jim :) :beer:
