It's been around for a few years and is still only waist high. I'm told
it's an acer but I can't find anything remotely resembling it.
Thanks for any info.

The leaves look more willow-like than acer to me. Salix integra?

That's it! Many thanks.
Why do I sit and wonder about these things when there's a digital camera
sitting there? Partly because I can never get that tinypic link thing to
work. No change there then :-)

Glad we've found it.

I've only recently learned about that but usually find it works but sooooooo
slowly that it's best to go off and do something else!

Depends on the size of the pic file you're uploading. Set your camera
to it's lowest resolution for pictures you're going to upload (e.g.
e-mail setting) and it's much quicker. Also quicker for the viewer to
download.

Oh certainly but sometimes with plants, quite a good bit of detail is
required and the quicker uploads don't always give that. Nonetheless, it's
a terrifically useful site.

I reduce the picture dimensions via software because I always forget to
do it on the camera, but which of the 4 tinypic codes you paste into
your message isn't clear. In my case it should have been

http://i12.tinypic.com/4qj0thi.jpg

rather than

http://tinypic.com/view.php?pic=4zc34zt&s=1

I think...

It's certainly a useful facility for this type of newsgroup

I've tried playing around with photos using the software on the Mac and last
time I did that they all disappeared 'somewhere' and the whole system just
kept crashing. I only just found them a few days ago. But I'm getting a
new Mac soon and am getting a techie to install stuff for me from here to
the new one in the hope all will go smoothly. At the same time, I'll ask
him about this playing around with photo software. He's actually going to
run a few classes for Mac users so perhaps that could be one of the issues,
if he's willing to use it.

Try http://photobucket.com/ instead of tinypic, you can post a link straight to a full sized image for example: http://i68.photobucket.com/albums/i1...singham018.jpg

It's the Mac user that's the problem here, I think. ;-)

Can I add my "me too" to that. I much prefer Photobucket, and have far fewer
problems reading the images there.

(Nice pic by the way.)

But I'm too lazy to log on and remember yet another password. It does
have the advantage of keeping a record of what you've uploaded though
