Oh Gran when you figure it out pls share with the rest of us technologically chanllenged folks!!  I have some really good pics of a Harley ride on Saturday, 5/10 to Ground Zero that I'd like to use for an avatar but my pic skills are non-existent and as you said step one is fine.  Pictures on the laptop.  Next step - oh my!  What next!  So anyone out tthere with how to advice on loading up avatars,  pls feel free!  Can't wait to see the floweres Gran:)  Hope all had a good Mother's Day.

And Thank you Anna Jarvis.

Okay, for now, I have started a photo album with Google's picaso album online and put one flower pic on there for public viewing.  I haven't tried it, but have faith that it will work.
