Finally finished my lab report

and now it's time to finish writing the orchid article! Thank god I know exactly what I want to write about. Now for the hard part, getting it done before Sunday night.....

Update: Friday afternoon was boring so the article is nearly finished! Now I just have to chose some pics and figure out how the heck to link them into the article.

I'm extending this contest by 1 week. New prize added too - $75 gift certificate to Andy's Orchids (Andy's Orchids - Orchid Species - Orchids - Species Specialist - Orchids on a stick)

Hopefully this will bring few more informative articles

Added Rule #5

5. If you submit more then 1 article, all articles will be considered for a prize, but you may only win once. Next prize goes to the runner up (not your 2nd or 3rd article). In other words, the more articles you write, the higher the chance of winning a prize.

... Keep the articles coming !!!

Help! I just posted my first article and I can't get the photos to show up. I posted them in my photo gallery and used the links that show up for each photo in my article. When done, no photos show up, just blank boxes. I tried different format options and still it does not work. I can cut and past the same link to a new browser tab and the photo shows up there, but the links do not seem to be working in my article. What am I doing wrong???

THANKS to whoever (probably Marty) fixed the photos in my article. I'd still like to know what I did wrong!

DWiggy, I had the same problem and Marty told me how to fix it. You right click on the picture in your gallery and copy the link from there. That link ends with JPG, so that's why it works.

Marty,
Where do I find the initials you've been using at the start of each article. Thought I'd make the initial letter of the article on the Ornithocephalinae like the others but I can't find the letters in the gallery.
