Post by: Hinfrance on April 27, 2009, 09:31:27 AM
Post your entries here for String:

That is string, thread, cord, rope; loose, coiled, knotted, coloured, plain; tied onto a handle, or to a traveller's dog . . . anything stringy

I've chosen this because I am sure that everyone will have access to a bit of thread.

The Rules for the weekly competition are...

Everyone is welcome and comments and critique on the entries are also welcome

Instructions for posting entries and creating the poll

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.

It was worth a try.
