TonyTiger66 Posted June 29, 2017 Share Posted June 29, 2017 Best wishes to Mrs. Spadgent Johnny. Remember to tell her; Forty is the new black! Hang on ? Nope, I got that wrong. You're only as old as the woman you feel! ! Think I got it wrong again I'll try again. Forty is the new thirty! That's it ! Don't forget to give her some of these, if she's anything like Mrs. T, she likes them more than she lets you know: Best regards TonyT 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mrs Martian doesn't mind where the flowers come from but should I dare leave the price on, I am in worse poop than had I never bought them in the first place! Maybe one of our lady members can explain this to this somewhat baffled alien? Martian, Confused as always. 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do you know, there was a very brave man, he did help other all his life long, then all of a sudden he passed away, as he was a good man, he came up direcltly on god's desk. God tell him, "you live your life as a mode for the humanity, what can I do for you ??" He answered "Oh God I always dreamed about seein Hawaii, but I fear the aeroplane and I'm sick on the sea, can you create a great bridge to Hawaii ??" God say, " Oh no Son, sorry about that but it almost impossible, did you have another wish ??" The man say " Oh Yes my God I will understand the way women are thinking..." God take a deep breath and answer " Ok Son, you bridge ? 2 or 4 lanes" Voilà, hope that it can help a poor confused alien ... Sincerely.

I'm sure you've got as far as clicking the download arrow at bottom right of the pic you want. It will give you a pop-up box, you need to click on the far right option, "BBCode" Copy that link, then paste it here. I then delete everything outside the [ img ] bits at either end, so what you're left with will start and end with [ img ]. That will delete the references you see under some people's pics.

I believe that their servers are bogged down (even more than usual) with people trying to retrieve their images. Says a lot about PB's chances of survival in future. What IDIOTS. thinks so too I like to switch the 'P' and the 'B' about - a sort of internal Spoonerism.

That is, I can't select the text in the field past its RH side, since the stupid thing doesn't scroll. Not sure it it's a system thing (although I think not) or the Flickr programmers being really lazy. Hopefully @Antb won't have that problem.

The Spadgent Posted July 1, 2017 Author Share Posted July 1, 2017 Oh god no. I'll go through all the posts later. Thank you all so much for Gemma's Birthday wishes. She's having a lie in for her birthday and I'm getting everything ready for the day ahead. I thought I'd have a quick look to see how you're all doing and. I can't actually believe it. All my posts are picture less and I can't download anything from PB. I'm reading on forums that it's a 400 dollar a year subscription to get your pics back. On PB it says £39.00 a year max and for the lower tier £9.99. Hopefully I can pay the lower price and get my threads back and my pics back. I'm going to have to sort this out but not today. I'm so sorry for this sh*t storm, I never get angry but this has really made my blood boil. watch this space. Speak soon. Johnny photo lack. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Johnny Hello Spad, And is there any way to get your pics back without having to pay such a price ? Hope that, someone here, has a clever and priceless idea. I'm new in photosharing, when I started BM, I tried PB but to no avail, seem pretty and unusefully complicated. I tried Flickr, more easy, free but you have to load your pics six by six with the old loading tool. Sometime slow but it work at least... Sincerely.
