Lovely pictures, Tawmmie and Mike! So pleased to see that one of the late night jam on Sunday with David Scheim and his harp (the very last photo), while Snuffy and Theresa were waltzing in the other room to 'Blow the Man Down'...!

What a wonderful evening, and an unforgettable weekend.

Great shots Mike ! Okay tommorrow or the next day I will get up a video listing.... I promised myself I would pay the bills and clean the bathrooms and Oh yeah start packing 6 people for a weeks vacation before I played with these anymore. The lists may not be totally detailed, but they'll be reasonably complete.

Thanks to Mike and Tawmie for posting so many wonderful pictures. Some of them will help me remember people's names. All of them make me feel warm and sentimental. Aaaah............

I liked some of the photos so much that I wanted to save them on my own computer but I couldn't figure out how. Techies, please help.

Pauline .... you create a file, on your computer, to hold the photos ..... then ......
Right click on the photo you want to save and from the menu shown, click on "save image as" ..........
a save box will appear, so you can then save the image in the normal way to the file you have created.

That's how I do it anyway and it works fine.

Nutty, it won't work with Mike's photos. I don't think they want you to copy them.

You have to click on the little photo to get the big photo, then go to 'view source' and find out the URL of the photo.

Finding the URL in all that other crap is the hard part. Scan for the section that has a bunch of indents, and it's the part that says "http://-and-a-huge-bunch-of-numbers-and-stuff"

You then copy and paste that into your browser's address window. When THAT page comes up, you can right click and select "save as."

Another way, that works on most later Windows verstions is to press ALT and PRINT SCREEN at the same time. This puts the image on your clipboard, and you can then paste it into whatever program you wish.

Yes Jeri ...admittedly the pics do stay small but you can play around with them in a photo/paint program.

Alternatively, you can lift the whole (large) picture off the screen using a program like MWSnap3 (a free download), copy it into a word processor prog and print it out. That only takes a few moments as well.

Nutty, sorry. I SWEAR it wouldn't let me right-click and 'save as' last night. It doesn't now, from both the thumbnail page and the big picture page. It's a lot less complicated than what I did to save a few of the pictures!

I saved several of Mike's pics with MW Snap...I can usually figure out how to dig the URL from that mess they hide it in, but I didn't go to 'view source' this time, as it was easier to just grab it and edit it the easy way...MWSnap and it's payware cousin, SnagIt are treasures in situations like this.

Thanks to all who gave advice on how to save Mike's photos. I downloaded and used MW Snap and it's a handy software package. Worked just fine. Of course, Bill D would know a good software package that is free. :-)
