Nice shot!
I've never seen such a beautiful crane fly.

 
Beautiful..
That is one beautiful cranefly. Wow.

 
Thanks so much Ashley...
I too thought it was pretty amazing! Actually, I just ID'd it and will move images to the guide page. Species Pedicia albivitta - Giant Eastern Crane Fly. Only two states and Ontario represented so far.




 
Excellent!
The colors on yours are just amazing.

Aside - how do you post thumbnails that are hyperlinked like you did here?

 
Thumbnails...
I learned how yesterday, thanks to Hannah! Copy the image number of the photo you want to hyperlink (it's at the top left of the image). The rest is simple...[thumb:(paste image #)] Now, if I knew how to italicize (paste image #) would be in italics. Only paste or type the number, for example 12345, no parenthesis, no #, no spaces. Hope this makes sense.

 
Thanks!
I think this site allows html - html tags fall between the angle brackets: < and >. So, to italicize, you put an "i" between those brackets at the beginning of the word or words you want italicized, and then when you want the italicization to stop, you end that tag with a "/", so the whole beginning tag is < i > (with no spaces), and the ending tag is < / i > (with no spaces). Spaces were included because, if not, then the tags would take effect as code and you wouldn't see them. =)

Let's try that out...

Yep, it works! If you want bold, use a "b" instead of the "i", and for underlined, use "u".

 
Thanks to you!
I knew how to bold in html, but didn't know how to italicize or how to underline.
(oops, underline isn't working in html, I used the BBCode with "[]" instead of " < > ").

Wow...the things I am learning here! Thanks so much Ashley, much appreciated.
