Photo doesn't work, bro. You've got to have a link that ends in .jpg (or .gif or .tiff, etc.)

lol. It can be frustrating, can't it?

The trick is to save it somewhere where it's available on the internet as a .jpg file.

Have you tried Picasaweb? It's free, and it's pretty good. http://picasaweb.google.com

From earlier this month:

That's hosted on Picasaweb. Works for me.

I tried that. The photo is from an email i received but when I try to save it to my desktop, or copy the url, it doesnt do it, or saves as a website... which doesnt end up opening.

EnFuego, the animal is from that email you sent me its that little rat, squirrel, raccoon looking things standing between the wooden planks... maybe you can help.

Maybe it was one of those wild llamas spotted in the cucamunga wilderness.

Be careful they play loud music and want to Jump on you during their eating performance.

My guess is an Abert's Squirrel, a type of tassel-eared squirrel most famously found around the Grand Canyon and other parts of the southwest.

Let me guess: squirrel nuts?

Looks like a Kaibab squirrel to me. Could be that Aberts squirrel that Mike was talking about.

Thanks! I tried ordering your 2009 Ferrari F430 but unfortunately, there is a 8-year backlog for these machines. Do you mind the wait?

Whoa, whoa, whoa... hold that Ferrari. Hope the deposit is refundable.

That's not a fisher, it's a short tailed weasel, aka stoat, aka ermine, aka land pirahna. Youtube it for some examples. :shock:

I'm a simple gal. I'll take a stock DB9. Tempest blue, please.

Excellent contests you run here. :lol:
