Actually these photos are from our second weekend away in our new trailer tent. We are delighted with it and can't wait to get away again - roll on Whit! However, I am already getting sick to death of the rain. Both weekends away have ended with rain just in time for us packing away. Don't you just hate that! Any other time wouldn't bother us at all but it always seems to come at the worst possible time.

Anyway, no comments about the slightly dodgy pitching please. The ground was slightly sloping and we're still getting used to pitching it - although it's much easier than I thought it would be.

Here's to a great summer under canvas (fingers crossed tightly)!!!

Okay what did I do wrong? I hosted my photos on photobucket and copied the IMG code. What should I have done?

Edit: I know the following messages will now look slightly odd but I thought it'd be better to get rid of my huge pictures (including a random one of one of my fish tanks???) and try to get it right.

Thanks for all the replies that follow - I'm getting myself confused now!

You need to resize your photos - above each of your photos in photobucket click on 'edit', then 'resize'. Click on 'preset sizes' and choose either 'message board' which gives you this size -

or 'website' which gives you this size -

then click on 'overwrite existing image' and it will replace your original pic with whichever smaller version you selected. Then click on the 4th line of text for each photo and copy it into your post.

Sorry, posted the same size photo twice! The second photo should be smaller than the first - like this -

Hope it all makes sense!

Okay now I'm losing my patience. I know how these things work. I've used them before on other forums and they always do this to me. It's a conspiracy by techy geeks to make me look stupid.

Why aren't my pictures showing. I've done all the things I was told to do and it's now just giving the web address.

Help!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

nope. Anyway I am pleased you are enjoying your new tt and you will continue to do so. Dont worry about rain at least you know you can do it all in the rain. We had loads of dry packs and pitches and all I worried about was what would happen if it rained!!

Oh am loving the tin tent after campaining against it..........I was wrong.
