  • CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.
  • We hope the site problems here are now solved, however, if you still have any issues, please start a ticket in Contact Us

they can attach pics direct from your "POOTER"
to CF there are specific file types TO BE USED
other formats will fail

Leaving selected pics on photobucket.com
enables QUICK SHOWING of your pics ie:
JUST WHERE YOU WANT THEM

I use MSN LIVE MESSENGER
"my handle/contact name" >> is my msn email
I will show /chat 'anyone' through joining photobucket
uploading to photobucket and bringing urls to CF

This offer open to all members of CF

Make a new folder on your desktop

paste into it jpegs, gifs, bitmaps etc

make a photobucket account
name an album there say: 'pics for CF'
and upload the pics from the folder on desktop
to the folder in photobucket from photobuckets
upload section
this searches your computer WITH YOU GUIDING
for the pics ie: (example Desktop/ pics for photobucket)
and you upload the pics one at a time to
the "pics for CF" folder

after uploading scroll down the page at photobucket
and find the pic you wish to send to CF

below the pic you will find 3 urls
these enable you to post your pics almost anywhere
Here we use the bottom url mainly
because we wish to show the IMAGE
example: [im g]file-name[/im g]
(spaces left are deliberate > as this an example only
and NO SPACES would be inserted were this going for real)
copying the lower url and pasteing to cf would show picture
copying the middle url would enable you to post picture to the html section of your homepage
copying and then pasteing the top url would simply provide a link to the pic for members to click on
they would then, view the pic in photobucket

I'm so sorry, Jim. I would really like you to see her.
Thank you Dave. As usual, you are a fountain of information and I will try all your suggestions.
Finally, bless your heart, Ariel. I'm sure you've seen the picture plenty of times by now. I'm thinking of calling her "Little Hot Mama" since she is always panting so much. It doesn't help that she (or her bird husband) built the nest right above the central air unit, because when it kicks on, I'm sure they really feel the heat. :)
But I suppose birds know what they're doing, and the heat acts similar to an incubator.

That's a sweetie bird, very pretty, and I'm so glad you got that picture, Claire! :)

Bird news here--baby sparrows must be progressing, because although I haven't seen them yet, I can hear them, and they are keeping their parents busy back-and-forthing.

And I thought MY children kept me busy!
