Hi Ben

Have a look here for advice about scanning and posting -

http://www.rootschat.com/forum/index.php/topic,198165.0.html

If you are getting a message saying that there is already another attachment with the same name, jusrt give your photo a new name - usually adding a jumble of numbers helps.

Judy
Best wishes, Judy :-))

Among thr Rex Begonias at the Ballarat Festival Australia.  If the original background has special significance for you it cam be readily replaced.
