Sorry I haven't done much updating of the site. In fact none in November - I wasn't well. I did take some interesting photos of the fireworks though - so I may add those on the gallery pages. As soon as I can. I have images on Photobucket to save on precious space. So have to upload the new photos to Photobucket - do new pages on the site and it gets more complex! lol I'm now on My Year Book! A link is at the bottom of every page on this site!
Just a few tips for using this site. Notice on the Youtube videos there is a menu button click that and you get to select other videos that are similar. I have also added some sub-pages to the gallery page, Friends and the Pix pages. Just click the forward buttons on those pages to see more pictures. Watch out for the new adverts in white - one on this page should be an online ordering service for flowers - handy if you don't have time to go to the shops.
Update News: Take a look at the new pages linked to the gallery page. Just click forward to see more pictures. I hope to take more photographs to add and have one or two to add on the next update. I even entered a photo in a competition! lol
I've joined my Year book - link at the bottom of the page. Being competitive I like the battles. I'm hoping site maintenance will be over soon and I can see if I won $500 on my wager yesterday - that is virtual money - not real dosh. I may put tips on my Tips page for you to learn how to make money and win battles! lol ... This site is slowly improving. I'm mainly putting images on Photo bucket and linking then to save space. I have around 30 pages at the moment - but much of the space is images - so still some way to go. Don't forget - if you can't find what you're looking for try the search box at the top of the page.
I have my new Fuji film 5600 digital camera. I have put some pictures on the gallery pages. I've extended that page with sub pages that that are linked with forward and back buttons. So each picture will have it's own page and text. This saves you clicking thumbnails and gives me more room for text. Text doesn't take up much of my specious web space! Those pictures should give you some idea of the quality of the pictures I'm getting with the Fuji film S5600. That has been replaced now with the S5700 - which is more or less the same but the new one uses an SD card rather than a XD card - they are more popular. I had a 2 Gig XD card - which will give me close on 2000 photos. It's a shame the batteries won't last that long. But I have re-chargeable and high power batteries as a spare. I've been trying to get an advert to work that allows you to order flowers online. I've done that on the phone but never online. It's a great idea - you may not be able to visit someone in hospital for example but you can at least send flowers. I hope the advert works this time!
If you buy online it is a good idea to use a credit card. In the UK you get some legal protection with a credit card on purchases over £100 too - that is worth remembering. I've been looking at savings accounts - but before opening one - check the small print. Some offer a bonus for the first 6 months of 1% and then pay you a lower rate. In the UK I've found the Capital One online savings account to be the best. It currently pays 5.9% and they always put the rate up when base rates go up.
Ice save is also another one worth looking at. |
