Lovely update on your Angel :applesauce: :wub:

I have stopped using PB last year as I really have not so good experiences on it with regards to editing/resizing prior to posting the image to this forum. Guess, it's kind of difficult when you're really not that techie. I just miss the album library that you can create on PB. :)

Looks really nice.
I can sympathise with your PB problems. It is getting progressively less compatible with any browsers and some of the adverts they use are distinctly toxic to browsers. I too am getting close to the point of never using it again.

Regards,

Richard

Thank You all for your lovely words and encouragement. Here is a small update from the last 2 weeks of stitching - most of it in the last 2 1/2 days. However it is not very cloudy, thunder in the distance and the light is not good so off with a coffee and some crochet or maybe knitting.
It has actually cooled off heaps after hitting the low 40's earlier this morning and yesterday - actual temperature were 33.8 yesterday and 35.1 this morning which gave the heat index of 42.4 - no wonder I was uncomfortable. I will hopefully get back to her on Monday, give my eyes a good rest before another bout.

Thanks for looking.

Great progress in spite of the heat! Treat your eyes to some rest and relaxation, she is beautiful but challenging I'd think!

:applesauce: :applesauce: She gets more lovely with every update!! Good idea to wait until your eyes are rested before you take her up again. I love this design and your stitching!

I see there's been another update since I last logged in. This is coming along beautifully (even if it has been too warm to work much on it). I am looking forward to more updates.

When looking at the image, Photobucket was kind enough to kill Internet Explorer for me. You can imagine, it was the thing I most wanted in all the world. It has become such a habit of Photobucket's that I've given up using Photobucket for my own images because the site is almost totally unusable with IE11. IE11 seems to last up to 3 advert changes before it dies, and as the adverts change every 30 seconds...
Image
Is there any chance of using the photobucket [im g][/img] tags so the full size picture appears in the forum post instead of a thumbnail?

Sorry, having got that off my chest, I will now comment on the stitching.

It's beautiful and you are doing an amazing job. It's looking extraordinarily crisp and precise. Love it.

Regards,

Richard.

Thank You all for your lovely comments, there is a break in stitching until a bit later next week - doctor's orders until they take another xray to check on my cracked vertebrae. Of course there is always a way to sneak in a few stitches here and there but I guess I had better behave myself.

Richard, if you click on the picture you can get a full size view - at least that is usually what happens must go and check it. Yep it works. Apparently the thumbnail version is what is preferred to be posted on here - due to space I am guessing.

Squirrel,
clicking on the thumbnail takes you to a Photobucket page with the ads down the side. The ads that kill IE11.

As the photobucket image is not stored on the forum, just inserted as the page is drawn, I'd be surprised if it takes any more room or processing for the forum software. The only difference is the amount of data downloaded. It is significant if on a dial-up connection, but even 'narrow' broadband (512k-1Mbit) should cope fairly easily.

Regards,

Richard.
