I'm not sure, but if there were some in your most recent posts I can't actually see them at all, not even a place holder :-(

Edited:
Correction, I can see it now. The blurring may be because you're trying to photograph it too close-up? If your camera has a macro mode (often symbolised by a little tulip) you can get much closer to things without them getting blurred.

This is going to sound odd, but I don't think they were originally, but now they are. (Or is it my old eyes?) The last one certainly is out of focus. The originals in Photobucket are as I remember them.

Photobucket is playing silly beggars when it comes to trying to get people to pay for storing photos. It's sending scaremongering e-mails to account holders and making displayed images out of focus. I am regularly getting e-mails from them with the subject line 'Warning: You Need To Take Action.', when what they actually mean is 'We haven't got any money off you yet.'.

Regards,

Richard.

A number of people use https://postimages.org/.
I have not yet done so, so don't really know how good they are. I do not like the targeted advertising that appears around a displayed image when you look at it full size, but I know of no reason not to use them.

Regards,

Richard

I have found Post Image to be very good and very quick and easy to load too.

I love your update and you have certainly made a lot of progress, is there much more to do or is this the end of the of the stitching? Incidentally your photos have all been 'furry' whilst using photobucket.

Oh this is lovely! :whoop: :whoop:

I have been tempted by this beauty so many times as Autumn is my favourite time of year.

Your stitches are so lovely and neat and even :applesauce: :applesauce: :applesauce: :applesauce:

BTW the PI photo is much better and as someone else said pin sharp.

I can't wait to see more updates!

Thanks :D When its finished, shall I wash it before backstitching or after? And shall I iron it before beading? Thanks for advice and help :wink: I have never finished something this big before.
