My Avatar is HUGE, I know... I don't know why... I've noticed others are Big, but not like this... I can't get into my own profile to fix it. Several people have commented on it... this is not my doing, I've tried to contact the G O D S at HGTV, no response... very Frown !!!

I like looking at the enlarged pics! ...Yes and scrolling to the right to see what's written - no big deal to me. Seeing detail now that is not shown in the itty bitty pics. Hang in there! Admin will eventually get it fixed.

KYIS, THANKS for posting and suggesting to scroll to the right! I did and now it all makes sense once I could see the written part!

Don't worry, Spanish Revival! We know it isn't you - just something strange going on with admin! But do have to say that I, too, like the enlarged photographs - the iris in particular looks like a gorgeous Impressionistic oil painting!

BTW, another strange thing going on is that the emoticons aren't working either! I'm sure it will all get straightened out sooner or later! (Insert smile here.... yes, I deliberately typed that!)

I tried replacing my avatar but can't seem to do it. My original was huge so I went in and deleted it. I then found another photo that I took and reduced it in size, imported it into the personal zone, hit submit, and it looks beautiful --- in the personal zone! But it won't show up on a post. Wonder why?

ETA: oops, there it is! Yea! I guess it won't show up on older posts. Anyway this was this year's dogwood in my backyard. Truly gorgeous.
